In the four years since UEFA EURO 2012, the estimation of ball ownership has succeeded as a debating point in the UEFA Champions League where the trophy has consistently wavered between groups who prize ownership and the individuals who are agreeable without the ball.
Britain v Iceland - Round of 16 - UEFA Euro 2016
The 2015/16 season refueled the verbal confrontation, with a limited edge of 53 wins for groups that commanded ownership and 43 for those that took a lesser share, combined with triumphs for the more straightforward approach of Atlético Madrid against both Barcelona and Bayern München – two ownership based groups second to none.
UEFA EURO 2016 supported the hypothesis that having a greater amount of the ball offers no assurance of results and left a couple question marks hanging over the pattern towards an ownership based style of play.
"I would say that exclusive Germany, Spain and England really needed the ball," remarked specialized eyewitness Peter Rudbak. "Italy absolutely weren't worried about ownership and many of alternate groups were entirely glad to concentrate on counterattacking."
Lupescu took up the subject of Antonio Conte's group, who completed close to the foot of the table as far as ball ownership. "Italy conveyed something new to the competition with their strategic approach," Lupescu said.
"Be that as it may, the establishments of their diversion were great safeguarding and powerful high squeezing. They couldn't have cared less about ownership - they underlined the substances of the amusement. Furthermore, they could undoubtedly have achieved the last had they not lost that punishment shoot-out."
Regarding debating focuses, the competition gave differentiating proof. While Switzerland were among the leaders as far as ownership (to the degree of appreciating 58% of the ball against France), Iceland's rush to the quarter-finals depended on having control of the ball for a little more than 21 minutes of every match.
Portugal painted their crusade in chiaroscuro, Fernando Santos' side obviously overwhelming ownership (somewhere around 58% and 66%) in their three gathering diversions, just for their share to drop into the 40s as they changed to counterattacking mode in the knockout matches against Croatia, Poland, Wales and France. Their competition normal of 52% is along these lines beguiling, as it covers a reasonable change of technique.
