Self-confidence and commitment

We often speak about football teams who are not technically up to be able to be competitiveas they want in our League (Serie A). The comments are often centered on the technical difficulties of teams or individual players. They are rarely made ​​on the psychological aspects. In my opinion there are some mental abilities that are largely separated by technical and tactical skills. They are self-confidence, commitment, concentration and team spirit. It’s known that the players have to be confidents to themselves and the collective. Then we have the commitment, that ensures to play intensive game. When we say that a team is determined by means playing with conviction and intensity. Players must play with this attitude even when the opponents are stronger, even when they have lost contrasts, because these difficult situations   represent a good measure how strong the individuals  and collective confidence and what it is the limit beyond which the commitment decreases. In essence, players and coaches do not have to hide behind the technical limits of the team to justify negative performances in terms of mind approach, because these aspects must be considered as independent also if they occur at the same time of technical skills.
