Positive 3: Ball possession dominance

Lastly, and I would like to say, but not least, though I think it is indeed the least important, is ball possession. Well, of course, dominating possession is important, but I believe it is the least important among the positives, considering the other three negative points we have already discussed.

Despite ball possession, there were dangerous situations, there was a lack of control in the overall match, and in the first half, we couldn't materialize more than one goal, which even came from an own goal. So yes, it is important, it is a positive aspect without a doubt, but much more work needs to be done to make ball possession even more relevant.
