Derby County boss Paul Jewell praised his players for their efforts after they came from two goals down to earn an FA Cup third round replay with Sheffield Wednesday.
The Rams were 2-0 behind after 23 minutes at Pride Park, but were back on level terms by half-time thanks to goals from Kenny Miller and Giles Barnes.
Jewell said: "A month ago we would have lost that game heavily, but we showed good character to come back.
"We made the usual basic errors, but I am taking the positives out of the game.
"The situation we're in at the moment, we have to take any crumb of comfort we can and a 2-2 draw with a team near the bottom of the Championship, on reflection, is not a great thing.
"But we were 2-0 down and staring down a barrel, so I'm pleased we're still in the hat, and pleased we've come back from a goal down which we've not done since I've been here."
