Robert Lewandowski insists that Borussia Dortmund can match Real Madrid if they face the Spanish team again in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Borussia Dortmund forward Robert Lewandowski has insisted that he is not scared of facing Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

The defending German champions reached the last eight of the competition with a 5-2 aggregate victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the last 16.

"Now we can relax and look forward to the draw," he told UEFA.com. "It could be Schalke or Bayern – anything is possible, and there are no weak teams left in the competition.

"Real Madrid? Why not. We're a good team too and we have a chance of reaching the final, but we need to remain focused. We'll have to wait and see who we get in the next round."

This is the first time since 1998 that Dortmund have reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
