Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou was delighted for his players after their 3-3 draw at Manchester City.
Spurs found an equaliser via Dejan Kulusevski in injury-time to earn the draw.
Postecoglou later said: "Really pleased for the players that they did get a reward. We weren't at our usual standard first half - Man City could have blown us away during that period. They missed a few chances, a lot like us last week to be honest.
"We hung in there and second half was a lot better. We had more belief and conviction and we made it more uncomfortable for them. Massive effort from the players, it would have been very easy to get blown away but I thought they showed great character and it is important they get a reward. A point is a good reward.
"Yeah we did give the ball away a lot and far too easily, but it wasn't due to pressure. It all looks easy from the sideline, but in this arena against that team it is easy to make mistakes. I thought a lot of it was down to us second guessing ourselves.
"Second half they played with clearer heads and left that to one side. We rode our luck a little bit but the players did what they needed to do. That's part of football, we had a chance at half-time, showed resilience to come back and right up until the end we were still trying to score."
He added, "Deki [Kulusevski] was excellent the whole game and we count on him attacking the box from that side. Him and Brennan [Johnson] have goals in them, we haven't had enough out of them yet but they are there. It's great those two combined for a great goal at the end."
