New York City Football Club Head Coach believes his side can advance from their Concacaf Champions League semifinal on Wednesday if they attack the situation.

The Boys in Blue find themselves 3-1 down from the first leg at Lumen Field, and will entertain Seattle on Wednesday knowing at a minimum a 2-0 home win will see them advance to the final of the competition. Speaking ahead of the game, Deila reaffirmed his belief in the group and outlined what his team must do to succeed.

“We have been home for a week now,” he said. “We have been training well, we’ve had a couple of days, we’ve been together with our families. I can see a totally different expression in their faces and my own face as well. Maybe I’m not as handsome as when I was 19-years-old, but still better than I was a week ago. I think it’s about energy. It's about belief. It's about attacking the situation and we have won many home games with more than two goals and I really believe that we can do that tomorrow. So it's about being organized. It's about being on the front foot and belief and attacking the situation. We know that we have a lot of quality.”
