But they didn't.they looked incredibly well organised, compact in and out of possession, defensively solid and very difficult to beat.
Against Spain they conceded 16 shots, their conceded xG was close to 2. So for a team that is compact, and defensively solid, those stats don't paint that picture.
Before their game to spain, they lost on xG against Belgium - Belgium putting up nearly 2xG again.
Sorry, but they weren't organised and defensively solid as much as you suggest.
They rode their luck and ended up winning. Fair play to them.
