Chelsea midfielder Jorginho was key to Italy's Euro 2020 final victory over England this summer.
That's according to UEFA's technical report.
The report, written by a team of technical experts which included the likes of West Ham manager David Moyes, gave a detailed analysis of the whole tournament, particularly the final.
Austrian manager Will Ruttensteiner, who is currently head coach of Israel, said: "At the beginning, Mount or Sterling were pressing up to prevent Italy's centre-backs from playing to their playmaker Jorginho.
"But Mancini obviously made a good team talk at half-time because the game changed totally. Their positional play was much better and Jorginho was able to get on to the ball and become the absolute leader on the pitch."
Jorginho made 98 passes from his controlling position in midfield, more than the combined total of England's midfield.
