According to Sofascore, in total, Oliva made five passes, with only three being accurate. Defensively, the midfielder failed to tackle the ball in either of his two attempts during the match but won two ground duels. The Uruguayan had eight actions with the ball and lost possession three times.
Christian Oliva began his professional career at Nacional in 2018. After impressive performances in Uruguayan football, he caught the attention of European clubs and took his first steps on the Old Continent, playing for Cagliari-ITA and Valencia-ESP.
Without a place in the Italian club, he was transferred to Talleres-ARG in 2022. The midfielder did not establish himself in Argentina and subsequently played for Juárez-MEX before returning to Nacional in 2024.
Back in Uruguayan football, Oliva regained his good form. Playing as a midfielder or defensive midfielder, he had a strong finish to 2025 and started 2026 as a starter for the team. In the last season, in which he became Uruguayan champion, he recorded 166 defensive actions in 40 matches, with an average of 4.15 interventions per game.
