But he was less happy about their work leading up to a late goal for the visitors.
Rodrigo Muniz fired home from a corner deep in added time to cancel out a Matt O’Riley penalty.
Th goal came from a flag kick after Jan Paul van Hecke had been forced to deflect a shot wide.
Asked whether his side did enough to have opened the season with a win, Albion boss Hurzeler said: “No, otherwise we would have won it.
“I think we defended really well, 96 minutes, and then there was one corner.
“I think it's not the corner, it's more the throw before and then the consequence after the throw in the corner.
“I think that was the only shot they had during the game. I think that's something we have to do better, but overall I'm pleased with the performance.
“Of course, the team will get judged by the results, but we really should focus on the performance.
“We did so many things, caught so many positive things, and that's my main focus for the following week.
“Then I'm sure the results will come.”
