Marcello Lippi has pledged no let-up from a rampant Guangzhou Evergrande as the Chinese champion looks to sweep into its first AFC Champions League final on Wednesday.

The World Cup-winning coach watched as his South American-inspired attack scored four second-half goals against Kashiwa Reysol to win last week's semifinal first leg 4-1 away from home.

But Lippi said Guangzhou, dubbed "the Manchester United of Asia", will not ease up in the return fixture as it bids to confirm itself as China's first finalist in 15 years.
