WC Quarter-Final Team Profiles

I was generating post-match reports since the beginning of the tournament. @FPL_Chase came up with the idea of compiling that data to map team profiles. With the help of two amazing people (@FPL_Jan and @FPLEchidna) we generated some reports. For each team, a visualization of clustered progressive pass and carry paths is given. 'Progressive' refers to moves that increase chance of scoring a goal, measured by 'Expected Threat'. It is hard to generalize attacking patterns in a World Cup due to limited number of games.
