Across three U20 Championship appearances as a replacement, Costa has shown reliable contributions in both the carry and defensive phases, averaging just under four carries and three tackles per match. His best outing — 6 carries for 23 metres — suggests he can impose himself when given opportunity, and his tackle numbers indicate he is not a passenger when defending. The consistency of his per-match figures across 75 minutes of total game time points to a player who settles quickly into test-level intensity from the bench.
