Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard is delighted to be back in the FA Cup semis.
Lingard admitted the win against Brighton was all that mattered after the midweek loss to Sevilla in the Champions League.
"They [Brighton] sat back and hit us on the counter-attack a few times, which we were obviously aware of before the match, but we knew we needed to win tonight and we got the win, which was the most important thing," he said.
"Of course [confidence took a knock after Tuesday night]. It's always difficult for a team to be knocked out of a competition, but we showed the character tonight to bounce back and not let anything faze us."
Romelu Lukaku opened the scoring shortly before half-time and Lingard was full of praise for his top-scoring team-mate and close friend.
"We know what he possesses and he has that presence up front for us," Lingard said. "He's that lone man who holds the ball up well for us. For him to score that many goals at this time of the season is great."
