Wing-back Nesta Guinness-Walker hopes a point at Barnsley could be a turning point in Northampton Town's battle to avoid relegation from League One.
The 2-2 draw ended a run of four successive defeats for the Cobblers, but they remain second from bottom of the table and have now gone nine games without a win.
Guinness-Walker put them ahead in only the third minute at Oakwell, but his side fell 2-1 behind before Max Dyche headed an equaliser.
"We showed good resilience, real fight, and some good quality in moments as well so it's definitely something to build on," he told BBC Radio Northampton.
"As a group, we need a turning point and we'll definitely try and use this to swing a bit of momentum.
"In football, sometimes things aren't falling for you, aren't happening for you, so we want to use this to spin that narrative and go into Saturday and get three points (against Stevenage) and start climbing the table.
"As a group we don't believe we should be where we are at the minute and it's on us us to change that and the only way to change that is results and points on the board."
Guinness-Walker's goal was only his third for Northampton in 51 league appearances and he hopes to contribute more when given a more attacking role by boss Kevin Nolan.
"It was nice to get off to a good start, personally and for the team. I want to be involved in goals, assists, and I had the opportunity to be wing-back rather than left-sided centre-back," he said.
"It was a real opportunity for me to get forward and try and help the team and thankfully I got a goal.
"I enjoy working hard, bombing forward, trying to help the team in attack and then recovering and defending with the team as well."
Team-mate Dyche admitted the team had been in a "rut" of late and were caught out by a "sucker punch" for Barnsley's second goal by Adam Phillips.
But the son of Nottingham Forest boss Sean Dyche said: "A cold, wet, windy Tuesday night, it's exactly when you see what people are really made of and we showed an important bit of character for us as a dressing room, as well as for the fans and the staff."
Two of Northampton's recent defeats were by a single-goal margin and Dyche added: "It showed us we weren't miles away and only a little bit of improvement (was needed).
"We stepped up a little bit against Reading, a little bit more tonight and if we can step up a little bit more against Stevenage and maintain that level, I've no doubt we'll come away with some better results moving forwards."
