Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard was pleased with their attitude for Saturday's 2-2 draw with Manchester United.
Villa fought back to earn the preseason result in Perth.
"It was very difficult to play football tonight – the conditions were extremely tough for both sets of players," Gerrard told Aston Villa's official website. "I was really pleased with a lot of our defensive shape first half but we got one or two things wrong and conceded goals on the back of that.
"We weren't good enough in possession to create in the first half. Second half was totally different. I thought our performance deserved to take something from the game.
"I thought we could have scored another couple of goals. We had individuals who stepped forward and were outstanding. People have really jumped out in that second half and let me know they really want to be in the starting XI.
"I'm pleased because I was frustrated at half-time, we had to iron a few things out. The players have gone out and been different in the second half for the better."
