Paula Junqueira

This Portuguese center-back combines explosive speed with impeccable reading of the game, remaining humble despite her intimidating physical strength. Once, as a child, she prevented a herd of sheep from invading the pitch by skillfully blocking every escape attempt, though her lackluster jumping ability still makes her trip over deep puddles. With relentless stamina, she anchors the defense like a calm, immovable wall that never loses focus.
