Gamba Osaka manager Kenta Hasegawa says his team will pull out all the stops to overcome China's Guangzhou Evergrande in the first leg of their Asian Champions League semifinal on Wednesday night.

Gamba are the only Japanese team left in the competition, with 2013 champion Guangzhou having eliminated Kashiwa Reysol over two legs in the quarterfinals.

Hasegawa is hoping his 2014 domestic treble winners can produce a performance that will keep them on track for a first ACL title since 2008.
