I see where you pointed out that Italy showed how to get the "upper hand" on Spain in the semis.
Yes they did!!! But they showed how to do this against a team that uses ball position as the primary foundation of their game from in the '82 WC vs Brazil. Pressure them early (from in their 1/3) & restrict the time and space they have to operate (causing them to rush & sometimes change their plays).
