Leyla Knoll

Towering German goalkeeper with gravity-defying reflexes and a commanding presence, she remains famously skittish when rushing off her line. To stay sharp, she meticulously braids a lucky piece of dried pretzel into her glove lace before kickoff, much to the bewildered amusement of her teammates. Her aerial dominance and stunning saves make her a charismatic wall, even if she occasionally trips over her own feet in transition.
