Instead off posting the whole list of stats, I'm going to do it more sequentially, bit by bit.
I will do a lot more on the Oz and UAE formation than in the past, as Australia was using quite an irregular 3-6-1 or 1-3-6-1.
In terms of possession based on completed passes:
Australia had 65% and the UAE 35%.
Australia 2, UAE 0.
In the last two games I've done recently with the more conventional 1-4-3-3 attacking midfield triangle, in terms of possession Australia achieved 75% against Iraq in Perth and 76% against Jordan in Jordan.
Australia beat Iraq 2-0 and lost 0-2 to Jordan.
Using the 1-3-6-1, Australia's possession decreased by circa 10% against the UAE.

The all important defensive pass accuracy was 100%, completing 30.

This is interesting in that nearly one third of his passes were made in the attacking half. He was used as a ball playing CB who had many forays into midfield.
