FORMER Celtic boss Ronny Deila added some more silverware to his CV as New York City won the MLS Cup Eastern Conference.
Footage has been shared of the Norweigan lifting the trophy in the dressing room after the game, as he took a swig out of the cup.
The 2-1 win against Philadelphia Union secured NYC's first ever trophy.
They will now progress to the MLS Cup final, where they will face Portland Timbers on Saturday, December 11.
The win was Deila's first trophy since he won the Premiership with Celtic in 2016.
And he celebrated in fashion as he took a drink from the trophy.
Celtic this afternoon congratulated their former manager on the big win.
They tweeted: "Huge congratulations to former #CelticFC boss Ronny Deila on winning the #MLSCupPlayoffs Eastern Conference Final with @NYCFC.
