Ghana international midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu heralded a strong comeback for Udinese by scoring the equaliser in their 2-1 win over Bologna in the Italian Serie A on Sunday afternoon. 

The 24-year-old Black Stars midfielder, who scored against AC Milan in midweek, crowned another inspirational midfield display with a goal after beating the offside trap to fire home from a second attempt.

Bologna went ahead after some sluggish defending by the Little Zebras as Anthony Mounier scored first at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.

But Udinese were inspired to claim a positive result from the game following their false start to the season and Badu heralded the comeback from racing through the middle to pick out a sensible pass from Colombian Duvan Zapata.

Zapata gained acres of space in the middle with his abilities before lifting a cross above the hosts defence with Badu racing in for the ball and neatly beating the offside trap. The Ghana international then hammered home for his second goal in two games.

Zapata then won the game for Stefano Colantuono's men as they recorded their second win of the Serie A campaign.
