Mario Gotze happy with Borussia Dortmund's campaign

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mario Gotze has said that he is happy with his side's season so far.

The defending German champions are 20 points behind leaders Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, but have progressed to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

"I don't think we could actually have played any better in the Champions League," he told FIFA.com. "We were eliminated from the [German] cup after losing to Bayern, but that's football.

"In the Bundesliga we're well on course to qualify for the Champions League again. The fact we're so far off top spot is annoying, but I have to admit that Bayern have been very good this season while we've dropped too many points."

Dortmund will face Malaga for a place in the Champions League semi-finals.
