Five clearances in loss to Egypt
Circati registered one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 1-1 (5-3) penalty shootout defeat versus Egypt. He also added five clearances and two tackles.
Analysis: Despite being a center-back, Circati proved to be heavily involved in offense. The Parma defender was one of two center-backs to play every single minute of World Cup action for the Socceroos, with Harry Souttar being the other. Circati finished the World Cup with 19 clearances, 10 tackles, six blocked shots, two interceptions, two clean sheets and three shots off target.
Solid showing in clean sheet
Circati registered three tackles (two won), three clearances and one interception in Thursday's 0-0 draw against Paraguay.
Analysis: Circati put in another solid defensive showing as Australia claimed their second clean sheet in three games. The centre back recorded three tackles, three clearances and one interception while also completing 60 passes and four long balls as Australia enjoyed more possession than in the first two games. The center back has started all three group stage games and his tournament totals underline how important he has been to the backline, contributing 14 clearances, six blocks, two interceptions and eight tackles with at least two tackles and three clearances in every game.
