Leicester City's caretaker manager Nigel Worthington was pleased with his side's performance after a shock 1-0 win at Preston North End eased the Foxes' relegation fears.
A last-gasp Nils-Eric Johansson strike moved City five clear of the drop zone with just two games to play and gave Worthington his first victory since taking charge of the Foxes.
He said: "We've been building up to that. It was a battling performance with a never-say-die attitude, which is what I like in a team and players.
"We've worked on that over the last ten days and we're starting to get to grips with what we're looking for.
"We're capable of doing it and overall we got our just rewards. We stuck at it and it was an excellent three points.
"We're not out to draw or lose games because the attitude is to go out and win every game we can."
