The Campionato Primavera 1 match between Lazio U19 and AC Monza Brianza 1912 U19 on December 17, 2023, resulted in a 1-1 draw, demonstrating a fairly even match-up between the two teams. However, when we delve deeper into the statistical factors, some discrepancies start to emerge that might have been significant in the outcome.

Looking at the goals scored, Lazio U19 managed to score in the second half at 00:56:33, while AC Monza Brianza 1912 U19 scored later in the second half at 01:34:41. The timing of these goals implies that while Lazio U19 had an early second-half advantage, AC Monza U19 showed resilience and an ability to score under pressure.

In terms of more defensive measures, there was a notable difference in the number of corner kicks between the two squads with AC Monza earning 9 compared to Lazio’s 5. This discrepancy may suggest that AC Monza put a substantial amount of pressure on Lazio's defence throughout the match, although it didn't reflect in the final goal tally.

When we consider disciplinary measures, the more aggressive side appeared to be AC Monza Brianza 1912 U19, accumulating three yellow cards compared to Lazio U19’s two. Interestingly enough, it was AC Monza who felt the sting of the referee's whistle the hardest—accumulating a single red card by the end of play. This could have been a crucial turning point in the match and might give context as to why Lazio U19 managed to claim a goal despite being outplayed in terms of corner kicks.

The key statistic of note here is the timing and spread of the yellow cards awarded. AC Monza picking up two yellow cards in the second half could have disrupted their rhythm and may explain their inability to convert more of their corner kick opportunities into goals.

In conclusion, both teams demonstrated instances of strength and weaknesses in this match. Despite being on the back foot in terms of corner kicks and the early second-half goal, AC Monza U19 showed great resilience in coming back to level the score, although their high number of yellow cards could suggest a need for greater discipline in their play. Lazio U19, on the other hand, defended well against a barrage of corner kicks but will need to work on turning their possession into more scoring opportunities. As much as this game ended in a draw, these stats offer insights into what both teams need to work on to increase their future winning chances.
