Udinese fumbled a 2-0 lead for their 2-2 friendly draw with Russian side FK Krasnodar.

The Friulani played their first test of pre-season and it was fairly unfriendly, as Krasnodar’s Gazinsky was booked within five minutes for a crunching tackle on Emmanuel Badu.

Moments later, Udinese took the lead when Cyril Thereau tapped in a Silvan Widmer assist from close range.

Duvan Zapata almost made it 2-0 and Panagiotis Kone’s fierce strike was parried before Badu’s impressive volley from the edge of the box.
