Lyon coach Rudi Garcia says his side are "not setting any limits" after their stunning 3-1 win over Manchester City set up an unlikely Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich.
A late brace from substitute Moussa Dembele decided the quarter-final in Lisbon after Kevin De Bruyne's goal had cancelled out Maxwel Cornet's first-half opener.
Lyon's victory against much-fancied City comes after they ousted Italian champions Juventus on away goals in the previous round. But the French Ligue 1 side will now have to see off an ominous Bayern team on Thursday (HK time) if they are to make the final.
"We know who we are coming up against next," said Garcia.
Bayern "will be exactly the same" as Juventus and City, Garcia added, "but on the basis of what the players have shown logically we can still hope to get through another round and that is what we are going to prepare to try to do."
Lyon finished seventh in the curtailed French season, leaving them no other path to Europe next season except by winning the Champions League.
They have appeared in continental competition in each of the last 23 seasons, but they have never gone beyond the semi-finals of the Champions League. In their only last-four appearance, they lost to Bayern in 2010.
"Confidence is growing within the squad, but we will be outsiders and once again it will need an exploit from us to go through," said Garcia. "When you are in the last four we can say that we deserve to be there and if we get to the final we really will deserve it."
City boss Pep Guardiola admitted that they shot themselves in the foot once more in the Champions League, as a familiar cocktail of defensive errors, missed chances and VAR controversy did them in.
And the Catalan coach - yet to get beyond the last eight in his four years in charge of City - again came under fire for another surprise team selection in the knockout stages.
"One day we'll break this gap to the quarter-finals," said Guardiola. "You have to be perfect in these competitions in one game and we weren't."
City looked disjointed as Guardiola started with an unfamiliar 3-5-2 formation and trailed at half-time to Cornet's strike.
After De Bruyne levelled 21 minutes from time, Dembele's strike to restore Lyon's lead was allowed to stand despite a VAR check for a trip on Aymeric Laporte. Raheem Sterling then incredibly fired over with the goal gaping and less than 60 seconds later an error from goalkeeper Ederson allowed Dembele to tap home.
"Different year, same stuff," said De Bruyne. "We need to learn, it's not good enough."
