Bournemouth have reached the Carabao Cup third-round after a 5-3 penalty shootout win over Norwich City at Carrow Road.
The match ended 2-2 in normal time with goals from Jordan Hugill, Emiliano Marcondes, Adam Idah and Brooklyn Genesini.
Idah thought he had won the game before Genesini equalised in stoppage time.
Norwich midfielder Todd Cantwell - who spent the second half of last season on loan at Bournemouth - was the only player to miss in the penalty shootout.
Speaking after the win, Parker told reporters: "Overall, it was a good night.
"I thought the way we played tonight was fantastic, really. The game probably should have been out of sight in that sense.
"The keeper, he was absolutely exceptional for them. He pulled off some incredible saves, really. And we've probably not done a lot wrong other than we've hit the target in those moments.
"And, I mean, he's making saves where he's just not got the right to do.
"I thought overall, I thought we were superb. Controlled the large parts, had some big chances and then showed big character at the end.
"To go down 2-1, with a young team on the pitch as well, to come back and then get that equaliser later on was very pleasing."
