Inigo Calderon believes that Albion’s late goal at Ewood Park will boost the squad’s morale.
David Lopez’s 96th minute penalty secured Gus Poyet’s men a point against Blackburn, erasing the bitter memory of Saturday's draw at Birmingham, in which the hosts themselves grabbed a late equaliser.
Calderon told seagulls.co.uk, “We are really happy as the last game saw Birmingham score a late goal and it was really hard to take.
“It was really important for our confidence to equalise because we did not create too many chances during the game, but that doesn’t matter now because at the end we had that something special.
“It wasn’t our best game but it was a bit weird because we played some good football but we couldn’t create.
“Their goal changed the whole game and we then we had to go at them to try and get back, so it was a key moment. *Maybe if we hadn't conceded the early penalty the result would have been different. *Overall a draw was a fair result for both of us."
Meanwhile the Spaniard admitted he demanded his fellow countryman stepped up to *take the injury-time penalty.
“It was funny because when we got the penalty David was on the floor and I said 'you have to take it!'
“He is the specialist taker and I am delighted for him because he has waited for his chance to play and he has won us the point here.”
