Celtic boss Ronny Deila is desperate to secure a place in the Scottish Cup final following his sides controversial exit last season. The Hoops face rivals Rangers on Sunday, live on Sky Sports 2 from 11am, for a place in next months end-of-season showpiece against Hibernian.The Norwegian was denied a domestic treble last season when his side faltered at the last-four stage of the competition with goalkeeper Craig Gordon sent off in a 3-2 defeat by Inverness, a game in which also saw the Hoops denied a strong penalty claim. Deila, who will check on the fitness of Danish central defender Erik Sviatchenko on Sunday morning, said; That was a special day last year, it was a day that we will never forget. It was a big chance that was taken away from us.Now we have a new opportunity to reach the final and that is what we really want. It means a lot to the players, the fans and the whole club as well so we are going to be ready. Ronny Deila knows about the Old Firm atmosphere from the their victory over Rangers last season It is the fourth time in a semi-final and the Scottish Cup is a cup we havent won in my time. I am really excited and looking forward to the game.Celtic comfortably beat Rangers 2-0 in their League Cup semi-final meeting last season in what was Deilas first match against the Championship side as boss. Since then, Mark Warburtons side have won their division and secured a place in the top flight of Scottish football. Erik Sviatchenko is facing a race against time to be fit for the Scottish Cup semi-final Deila admits he is looking forward to what he expects to be an unbelievable atmosphere at the national stadium.You dont have to come here to understand that rivalry, he said. I have seen it many times on television and heard about it. But when you are into it you see that it is even more than you see when you are outside.It was a big occasion and the atmosphere was unbelievable. Scottish football is at its best when you have Champions League nights and games like this.Rangers are very clear in the style they play and we are clear how we play so there is nothing new coming up. They are playing a totally different way now. Celtic manager Ronny Deila says his players will call upon their previous big-game experience for the Old Firm clash on Sunday Almost every game they have 70 per cent possession and we have 65 per cent so both teams are used to having the ball so we will see on Sunday who has control.I think the team who can defend very well and keep the ball at the same time has the best chance to win it.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- It turns out Mitch Trubisky just needed a little bit of time.North Carolinas first-time starting quarterback looked uncomfortable and out of rhythm in his debut against Georgia. Three games later, the junior enters October in a mistake-free groove, racking up big numbers and ranking as one of the nations top passers while showing the composed play coach Larry Fedora had hoped to see.Good timing, too, considering the Tar Heels visit No. 12 Florida State this weekend.Really its just doing what Ive been doing in practice, Trubisky said Monday. The Georgia game, I was doing things I wasnt coached to do, things I havent shown in practice. And I just corrected those mistakes and played like the player I am . and distribute the ball to the playmakers really. Its getting more comfortable each week and learning from my mistakes.Trubisky isnt making many for the Tar Heels (3-1, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference).The Mentor, Ohio native has thrown 202 straight passes without an interception, beating the previous program record that had stood for 19 years by nearly 50 attempts. Hes one of 11 quarterbacks in the NCAAs statistical leaders yet to throw an interception and ranks eighth nationally in passing efficiency.But hes no game manager. Hes running a fast-paced offense that calls on him to make the right call at the line with a run-pass option and push the ball downfield. And that has him ranked among the national leaders in passing yardage and passing touchdowns, too.I like him, Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher said, but hes going to be a pain in the tail this week.Trubisky is coming off a huge day in the ACC opener against Pittsburgh, completing 35 of 46 passes for 453 yards and five touchdowns -- including a scoring throw to Bug Howard with 2 seconds left -- to help UNC rally from 13 down with 6 minutes left in a 37-36 win.ddddddddddddAdd in his 432-yard day against James Madison, and Trubisky threw for 885 yards, completed 81 percent of his passes and recorded two of the top four single-game performances in program history in an eight-day span.Its been a huge difference from his 156-yard day in his first starting debut in the Georgia loss. Fedora criticized Trubiskys footwork then and said he was trying to do too much as he failed to connect downfield.Fedora sees more poise now.He was anxious and he was aware of the rush, Fedora said. Now hes sitting in there doing what he needs to do, seeing the field. Hes aware of the rush because he still has to move in the pocket and he still has to move in the lanes. . That means hes aware but hes seeing all that in his peripheral vision because hes still downfield on all his throws.Trubisky showed that on UNCs final drive against Pitt, directing a 17-play drive that included three fourth-down conversions before Trubiskys last-second winning throw.To be honest with you, you almost get more nervous (watching the film), even though you already know whats going to happen, receiver Austin Proehl said. Hes very composed. Hes very, `Hey, this is what were going to do, this is the play I want to run. This is what theyre going to do and this is how were going to beat it.---AP Sports Writer Joe Reedy in Tallahassee, Florida, contributed to this report.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap and the APs college football site at http://collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
