Across five U20 Championship appearances as a replacement, Mastropasqua has built a profile defined almost entirely by his defensive output, averaging over six tackles per match and accumulating 32 in total. His carrying is minimal and functional rather than ambitious, suggesting his primary value to the team is as a reliable defensive presence when introduced from the bench. When given extended opportunity, he has shown the capacity to lift that tackle count meaningfully, pointing to a player who grows into the contest the more time he spends on the field.
