The match between Lazio U20 and Inter Milan U20 on 25 August 2024, was a thrilling encounter that provided plenty of drama and statistical insights. Lazio emerged victorious with a 3-2 win, despite what the figures suggest was a relatively balanced game in terms of possession and chances. The early goal from Lazio at the 14:42 mark set the tone for an intense first half, only to be leveled by Inter Milan at 37:58.

In terms of shots on target, Lazio displayed clinical finishing, maximising their fewer opportunities to score three goals. The home side's efficiency contrasted with Inter Milan's, who, despite scoring twice, had several missed chances. This discrepancy is underlined by the corner kicks statistic; Inter Milan had 10 corners to Lazio’s zero, indicating that they managed to put the Lazio defense under significant pressure but could not capitalize on these set-piece opportunities.

Inter Milan's goal shortly after the second half began at 47:15 suggested a shift in momentum. However, Lazio's resilience shone through as they equalized at 77:14 and took the lead decisively at 83:31. Teamwork was evident in Lazio's cohesive counterattacks and pressing, contrasting with Inter Milan's struggles to convert their dominance in corners and set-pieces into goals.

Discipline also played a crucial role. The home team racked up three yellow cards, with two coming in the second half during a tense period. Inter Milan had one yellow card late in the match, showing their frustration and perhaps a dip in focus. Despite the pressure and tough challenges, neither team saw red, but the higher number of cautions for Lazio suggested both aggressive play and tactical fouling to disrupt Inter’s rhythm.

The overall performance highlighted Lazio's superior ability to seize key moments despite being under substantial pressure from corner scenarios and maintaining poise during critical junctures of the match. Inter Milan will rue their inefficiency in turning prolific corner opportunities into goals, a factor that ultimately weighed heavily in the final outcome.
