Ronny Deila urges Celtic focus in Scottish Cup semi-final

Deila urges Celtic focus

Celtic manager Ronny Deila has urged his players to keep their focus during Sunday's Scottish Cup semi-final against Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

The Hoops will be able to keep their treble dreams alive tomorrow afternoon if they triumph at Hampden Park.

However, Deila has warned his side not to get distracted by the possibility of lifting another piece of silverware when they step out onto the pitch.

"We have shown that for a long, long time now and again, our biggest opponent is ourselves. We need to keep our mind on the right things," the Norwegian is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"I have felt a sense of excitement for a long time. But it is very important to focus on the next training session and next game, instead of thinking of what might be, thinking of what we have to do to make it as good as possible now."

Celtic are currently on an eight-game unbeaten run in all competitions.
