Brazilian right-back Maicon is determined to help Manchester City clinch a place in the Europa League.

Roberto Mancini's side have failed to progress from the group stage of the Champions League for a second successive season, but can still qualify for the Europa League if they win at Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night and Ajax fail to do so at Real Madrid. City are 23/10 with bet365 to beat Dortmund while the Bundesliga outfit are available at 21/20 to take the three points from the match. Some City fans want their team to concentrate all their efforts on retaining their Premier League crown rather than featuring in the Europa League, but Maicon disagrees, saying: "We are playing for pride, but also for practical reasons, because we want to carry on playing in Europe, even if it's not in the top competition. "The Europa League is important to us, so we need to stay in Europe until the end of the season if we can."
