The Houston Dynamo need a miracle, and head coach Wilmer Cabrera is confident his team can craft one in the second leg of the Western Conference Final.

Cabrera has quite the task on his hands as he prepares to get his team out of a major rut against the Seattle Sounders, after conceding a pair of away goals at BBVA Compass Stadium in a 2-0 first-leg loss.

It would take a win by at least three goals to get Cabrera's side into the final against Toronto FC or the Columbus Crew.

Despite the odds, he believes it's possible.

"We have to prepare ourselves for Seattle," Cabrera said, according to MLSsoccer.com. "In Seattle, can we win? Yes. We're going to go with the mentality that we can win that game because we have a good team. We can be dangerous.

"But it's going to be a tough game. We have to have a good mentality. We're going to take risks over there. We're going to take risks because that's the only option. It's another 90 minutes at their home. And we need to prepare ourselves for those 90 minutes or it's going to be the last 90 minutes for us. Or it's going to be some kind of miracle. I believe in that."
