'We're becoming a team now'
Luton Town are gelling and becoming a team, according to midfielder Thelo Aasgaard.
The Norwegian scored his first goal for the club in Tuesday's Championship win at Cardiff, having arrived from Wigan Athletic in January.
"It's hard to sum up in words but it's an unbelievable result and the lads carried out the game plan really well," Aasgaard told BBC Three Counties Radio.
"We knew before it was a big game but we approached it really calmly and even going 1-0 down we showed great character to stay in it and show our quality in the end."
The Hatters' second victory in their past three games moves them to within two points of safety and Aasgaard feels they have shown they are more than capable of escaping the drop.
"The message at half-time was to 'go for it, believe in yourselves'. We got the ball in the final third but it wasn't quite there with the final pass, final cross and so it was to believe in ourselves a bit more and we did.
"If you get too emotionally attached during a game you can get too down but we were really calm and there's such great character in this group, we're gelling really well and we're really becoming a team now and have picked up some important wins."
Luton host eighth-placed Middlesbrough on Saturday.

Watch: New York man plays golf for 36 consecutive hours
June 11 (UPI) -- A New York man may have earned a Guinness World Record by playing golf for 36 consecutive hours. Kelechi Ezihie, a Long Island man who is originally from Nigeria, hit the links at Huntington Crescent Club at 6 p.m. Sunday with the intention of playing the game for 24 hours, the minimum goal set by Guinness World Records to originate the title for the longest marathon playing golf. Advertisement Ezihie's plans abruptly changed halfway through his attempt when he was told a Norwegian man had just completed an attempt that went on for 32 hours. Ezihie extended his own attempt and ended up finishing after 36 hours of golf on Tuesday. Evidence from his attempt must now be reviewed by Guinness World Records. Ezihie said his goal is to expand the reach of golf, especially to young people in Nigeria, where he bought land and plans to build a course. "People assume that golf is for the wealthy and I'm trying to change that," Ezihie told CBS New York. "The goal is to let people know that golf is a game for everybody. Whatever your economic background or somebody with special needs, you can play the game of golf."
