Tactical battle
46control54In possession
Field tilt is each side's share of play in the final third.
Out of possession
↓ Lower is better, so the longer bar always wins. PPDA is opponent passes allowed per defensive action.
Carrying
Distances are how far the ball was moved forward, not how far anybody ran.
Beating the press
A take-on is a player going past an opponent with the ball at his feet.
Threat created
xT values where a possession reached; VAEP values every action by how much it shifted the chance of a goal.
Tempo
