I see 3 of the top 5 teams who've had the most possession are already knocked out. I think that says a lot.

Yeah... it shows that possession without creativity/infiltration/proper tactics generally do nothing. For example, England had the ball most of the time on their matches but didn't know what to do with it... they were just passing randomly hoping for the best, and it's not even like they were waiting for the proper time to move forward, they were just clueless. Meanwhile you have teams like Germany that have possession and patience but also know how to penetrate when the opportunity appears.

Very well said.  It's why Germany and Italy are so dangerous.  They know how to win.  It will be a very interesting match.
