pull off

We use [pull something off] to mean succeed in achieving or winning something difficult:

• Do you think we’ll be able to do it? It’s a larger project than we’ve done before. [replacing phrasal verb]
  
• Do you think we’ll be able to execute the project? It’s a larger one than we’ve done before. [replacing phrasal verb]
  
• They’ll never be able to complete the plan. They’re too disorganised. [replacing phrasal verb]
  

• How he pulled off the robbery with his so-called organisational skills no-one knows.
  
• Despite the short timeframe, he pulled it off; the party was a success!
