Luton Town boss Matt Bloomfield spoke to BBC Three Counties Radio after the Hatters beat relegation rivals Derby County 1-0 to give their hopes of Championship survival a major boost.
"I thought first half, for an away performance, we were excellent," he said. "We passed the ball incredibly well, we had a goal threat and the only disappointment is that we didn't come in two or three up to kill the game off.
"It was always going to be a tough second half with Derby supporters right behind their team and creating the noise they do here.
"But to put on that kind of defensive display, I'm so proud of the lads. We took a real punch on the nose last Saturday in the defeat against Blackburn, but I didn't want it to ruin the momentum we had been building.
"It was important that we kept our heads today, because if we got too uptight and anxious, and built it up to be too much, then we weren't going to come and perform. It was really important that we stayed calm in this situation.
"I've just delivered the message to the boys that nothing is done yet, just like it wasn't over last Saturday when we were beaten by Blackburn.
"We have to show that fighting spirit at the Kenny [Kenilworth Road against Bristol City] on Monday."
