The following sentence is taken from the online edition of The Telegraph:

No outfield player has more caps and he has surpassed Sir Bobby Charlton and Gary Lineker for goals, but his so-called Golden Generation never made it past a quarter-final of a major tournament.

My question is this:

Would you please give me some alternatives or synonyms for "made it past"? What about "reached" or "GOT IT THROUGH TO"?

Thank you.
