When you’ve downloaded it, you’ll find the A-League added into the 2012/13 competitions tab.

We’ve loaded all the data from the five A-League finals games from last season to give you a taste of the app and how good it’ll be once the A-League kicks off this October.

Track the player influence of Zwaanswijk in the grand final, check the passes of Shinji Ono, the tackles of Leigh Broxham. Attacking third stats, offsides, set plays, headed clearances… you get the picture?

More than an app, FourFourTwo Stats Zone is a way of life. Powered by Opta statistics updated live during the match, Stats Zone changes the way you watch football. Basically, it makes you smarter.

The multi-award-winning app allows you to find out things you didn't know and prove the things you suspected. It entertains and educates, and because the screens are sharable via social media, it allows you to become a palmtop pundit.

Once the A-League kicks off in October, the app will give you live updates from all games feeding in a plethora (that means a shit load) of cool data on the game happening in front of your eyes.

Of course it’s not just the A-League.

EPL kicks off this weekend and it’s in the stats zone app along with Serie A, La Liga Germany Bundesliga, UEFA Champions, French Ligue 1, and Europa League.

That means you can follow the live progress of our Aussies abroad like Robbie Kruse in Germany and Mile Jedinak and Schwarzer in the Prem, among others.

With Stats Zone, you can go into amazing detail to analyse matches in the Premier League, A-League, Champions League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga & Ligue 1 – all COMPLETELY FREE.

So what does Stats Zone allow you to do?

    Track every pass, tackle, shot, foul and assist

    Dozens of different categories

    Compare player v player, team v team or even team v player – in different games and competitions

    See how each player’s influence changes through the game

    Limit the data to any time you specify: how did that red card change things?

    Check data to create the perfect fantasy football team

It's ideal "second-screen" information, and it could also prove you right at the game. And whatever you discover, you can instantly share your screens with the world via Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Pinboard, Instapaper, LinkedIn, Google Reader, Pocket, Evernote, Readability, Diigo, Vknotakte or good old email.

The dozens of different data categories include:

 

  shots  – on/off target, blocked, inside/outside the area, woodwork hits, from set plays

    passes – with completed %, plus passes received, attacking third, assists, long/short, forward/backward/square, chances created and backpasses

    attack – crosses, take-ons, corners, offside passes

    defence – tackles, interception, blocks, clearances, headed clearances, aerial duels

    fouls – committed, suffered, yellow cards, second yellows, straight reds

    player influence – the bigger the name, the bigger the influence; plus average position

    best in class – players compared by shots, passes, attacking-third passes, take-ons, tackles, etc etc

Throughout the game, Stats Zone constantly updates the data to show you the best in each category, so you can see who's running the show. And don't forget you can choose what period of time you analyse, so you can see how your mob tailed off in the second half or that brilliant substitution changed the game.

You can also use Stats Zone's alerts system to keep you up to date with major events – whichever you choose out of starting line-ups, goals, red cards, half-times and final scores – for up to five teams in any league. Handy when you're unavoidably detained elsewhere.

Never content to rest on laurels, we're always looking to improve the app via updates. During the 2012/13 season, we've introduced:

    pass combinations – the players who link up the most in any given game

    goal build-ups – a screen showing every pass in the move before a goal

    more info on Key Events – assists, missed penalties, reasons for cards

    team dashboards – track every attacking and defensive action

    blocked crosses – one for the full-backs
