Janelle Matthews

Dominating the midfield with unparalleled verticality and brute force, this Saint Vincent dynamo treats every match like her personal catwalk. She once famously sprinted the length of the pitch to retrieve a wayward pass just to show her own goalkeeper that her positioning skills were superior to the entire back line. Her tactical brain is sharp enough to dismantle any attack, though she possesses a baffling, stubborn refusal to head the ball away, preferring to let the leather graze her curls instead.
