خلفية ثقافية
The phrase is inextricably linked to 'День Победы' (Victory Day). In every speech on May 9th, you will hear about how the Soviet people 'одержали великую победу'. In the Soviet era, 'одержать победу' was used in the 'socialist competition' (соцсоревнование) between factories and workers to meet production quotas. Russian sports fans are very patriotic. When a national team wins, the media uses this phrase to elevate the win to a matter of national honor. Classic Russian literature often uses this phrase to describe internal moral struggles, reflecting the 'Dostoevskian' focus on the soul.

Case Alert
Never forget the Instrumental case after 'над'. It's 'над командой', not 'над команду'.
