Manager Andre Schubert believes Borussia Monchengladbach have proved they belong at Champions League level - but accepts Europa League qualification may now be their aim.
The Borussia coach acknowledges his side have their work cut out to progress in the elite competition as they prepare to host Manchester City in their penultimate Group C game on Wednesday night.
The Germans need to beat City at Borussia Park to retain realistic hope of progressing - and even then would be reliant on other results - but a draw would ensure a tilt at the Europa League.
Schubert, whose side were beaten 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium in September, said: 'We're not going to try and pull something extraordinary out of the hat.
