Julio Velazquez insists Udinese’s comeback from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Parma was “worth the same as a victory.”

The Spanish tactician was getting his first taste of Serie A football and it didn’t start well, but his team managed to recover at the Stadio Tardini.

“I think we did well and it’s a positive result,” Velazquez told DAZN.

Julio Velazquez insists Udinese’s comeback from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Parma was “worth the same as a victory.”

The Spanish tactician was getting his first taste of Serie A football and it didn’t start well, but his team managed to recover at the Stadio Tardini.

“I think we did well and it’s a positive result,” Velazquez told DAZN.

“It wasn’t easy to play against a Parma side that had been missing from Serie A for a few years and was highly-motivated to start strong.

“I think this draw is worth the same as a victory. Our idea is always to try and win, but today a draw in the circumstances was positive.

“We did better in the second half and that is also a good sign for our fitness levels. We could even have won towards the end and kept pushing.”
