“It is a really big chance to grab a point after playing really well here,” De Canio told Mediaset Premium.

“It was a tactically smart, entertaining and fascinating encounter. When we pushed hard, we created a lot of clear-cut scoring opportunities.

“Of course we didn’t expect to come here and annul Inter completely or even dominated them on their own turf. I am satisfied with the performance, but obviously not the result.”

He was asked if Udinese stars Silvan Widmer and Bruno Fernandes are ready for a move to the likes of Inter.

“I think so, especially as they are lads with good technical quality as well as character. They are ambitious and eager to improve.

“They have what it takes to stay in a squad like Inter.”
