Dive into Bwin's post-match review of Union Saint-Gilloise 0-4 Inter in the Champions League on Tuesday, 21 October 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

Inter's commanding 4-0 victory over Union Saint-Gilloise at the latter's home ground was a stark demonstration of their superior form. The result was not surprising given Inter's recent wins, including a 3-0 triumph against Slavia Praha, while Union Saint-Gilloise had previously lost 0-4 to Newcastle United. Inter's dominance was evident throughout the match, with goals scored at crucial intervals that effectively sealed the game by halftime.

Pio Esposito was a standout performer for Inter, contributing significantly to their victory. Union Saint-Gilloise struggled to find any rhythm, with their recent form showing no signs of improvement. This defeat extends their losing streak and highlights the gap in quality and execution between the two sides in this Champions League encounter.

The slight edge in corners (4 to 3) and successful dribbles (45% to 40%) further underline Inter's dominance. The single yellow card for each team suggests a relatively disciplined game, but the key difference was Inter's ability to convert possession into goals, evidenced by their three assists compared to Union Saint-Gilloise's zero.
