Mantova beat Lengo Salus 3-1 in a club friendly on 6 August 2026. The visitors opened the scoring in the 48th minute and doubled their lead just nine minutes later. Lengo Salus pulled one back in the 77th minute, but Mantova sealed the win with a fourth goal in the 81st minute.
And here's the thing about the statistics. The home side registered zero corners, zero offsides and zero throw-ins across the entire match. Mantova collected eight corners and had one throw-in. It paints a picture of a team that simply didn't get the ball into dangerous areas.
To be fair, Lengo Salus did manage to score. Their goal came in the second half when they finally found some rhythm, but by then the result was already decided. Mantova had taken control early and never let go.
The visitors' recent form tells its own story. They beat Alcion 6-2 and Ambrosiana 7-0 in July 2026. Before that, they lost 5-0 to Frosinone but bounced back with wins against Monza and South Tyrol. This friendly continued that pattern of mixed results with plenty of goals.
Lengo Salus have not played since May 2024, when they drew 1-1 with Atalanta II and beat Lumezzane 1-0. Their last competitive fixture was over two years ago, and their most recent match before this was a 2-5 defeat to Reggiana 1919 in August 2024.
The final scoreline of 3-1 reflects Mantova's superiority. Three goals, eight corners, and a clean sheet in terms of disciplinary records. Lengo Salus had nothing to show for their efforts beyond a consolation goal in the closing stages.
