1) Poorly executed crosses
2) All except one or two corner kics as grounders
3) No dribbling except for a couple of counter-attacks that failed
4) Overwhelming posession rate that promoted the team to panic when losing possession and being countered-attacked.
5) Single striker strategy wouldn't work well agaisnt the Swiss simply because they had a height advantage - a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 would have sealed the deal.
6) Gameplay was merely to exhibit superiority in passing.
7) All the attacks were made on the right flank, allowing the defence to position themselves comfortably throughout the game.
8) No defence splitting tactics since the Swiss had employed about 6 players in their box during all assaults.
9) And the rest is history..............
