Tommy Wright says that St Johnstone deserved to score their 90th-minute equaliser against Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
Ryan Christie put Inverness ahead in the ninth minute, but substitute Graham Cummins struck late to rescue a point for St Johnstone.
"The first half wasn't particularly good for us," Wright told BBC Sport. "We created one or two opportunities but we were too slow in our passing.
"Second half was much better. We moved it a lot quicker, created quite a few opportunities and [we're] obviously pleased to show character to keep right into the game to the 90th minute and get a great goal.
"I think it was a deserved equaliser. We created enough in the second half to get something out the game."
St Johnstone finished fourth in the table last season, one place behind Inverness.
