Jonny Evans was delighted with his comeback game forManchester United's FA Cup win over Liverpool.
The defender suffered a loss of form earlier this season, but he has come back fighting.
"It's been difficult in terms of dealing with the mental side of it," he admitted to MUTV. "But I've always had confidence in my ability and great support from my family and the manager.
"I just had to step back and look at what things I needed to be doing - and that's just doing the basic things well, like defending and keeping clean sheets."
That's exactly what he did against Liverpool on Sunday alongside Rio Ferdinand, who Evans praised for his part in the shut-out of Fernando Torres and co.
"Rio's been fantastic," he added. "He's had a stop-start couple of seasons, but he's played a lot of games and he's back playing well. He's got great experience, so that was good to have alongside me."
Evans will be hoping to build on this excellent display, but he knows there's still hard work ahead.
"It's funny how things can change in football, and you can't become complacent. I just want to prepare and make sure I do well in my next game."
