Neil Warnock praised Craig Beattie and Victor Moses in Crystal Palace's 1-1 draw at Ipswich.
Striker Beattie impressed the Eagles manager on his debut after joining on a month's loan from West Brom, while young star Moses capped a fine performance by netting the equalising goal.
Warnock said: "Craig made a big difference and gave us something to hang onto. As for Victor, we know what he can do.
"I left him out a couple of weeks ago and told him why, but since then he's come back and played as though a weight has been lifted from his shoulders.
"We needed a performance like that and it took a good team to make us play. I thought our tactics were good.
"We looked strong, played some good counter-attacking football and overall it was a good match for TV.
"It would have been cruel to lose but had we scored a second it would have made it a bit nervy for them."
Ipswic boss Jim Magilton said: "We've made a stuttering start at home and, after picking up so many points here last season, teams will come here and make it difficult for us.
"Palace did just that and probably deserved something from the game. After we scored it should have given us the confidence to go on and win the game.
"But it didn't transpire that way. We conceded another poor goal and that cost us three points."
