Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson was delighted that they could continue their recent revival with an FA Cup victory over Newcastle United.
Leonardo Ulloa scored the only goal of the all-Premier League clash at the King Power Stadium to send the Foxes through to the fourth round.
The victory follows a 1-0 win at Hull City, which ended a 13-match winless run, and come-from-behind draw with Liverpool on New Year's Day.
Pearson feels that his side are starting to turn a corner and are finally getting the benefit of some luck to help them do so.
"What a difference a week and a half makes, eh? It was an important result for us today, off the back of two decent results in the league," he said to reporters.
"Our league performances have been better than the results reflect. And now we have to build upon positives, with today being such a scrappy affair. But we didn't look overly uncomfortable when they had the ball.
"They had an unluckily disallowed goal which was possibly onside. So that's one that's fallen our way, though the debate remains regarding the use of technology. But with today's result that's three good wins on the trot."
Bottom-of-the-table Leicester resume their league season when they host Aston Villa next Saturday.
