West Ham United boss Avram Grant doesn't believe their dramatic Carling Cup semifinal defeat to Birmingham city will add to his players' lack of confidence.
Grant does not believe the result will have a negative impact on the Hammers' bid to stay in the Premier League.
He said: "I don't think it will have an impact on the players' confidence for the relegation battles ahead.
"You saw we played well in the first half. We did not play like a team who are bottom but we have to defend better than set pieces. I can take something from the recent games but football is a game of results.
"We wanted to be in the final and the two goals from corners made the difference.
"We will continue fighting. I don't think we didn't play well. We will not give up, we will keep fighting."
