Paulina Kristiansen

A ferociously energetic Danish defensive engine, she dominates the pitch with relentless tenacity and aerial dominance, though her sluggish initial burst sometimes leaves her chasing fast attackers. Before every whistle, she insists on stuffing a dried lemon peel into her right boot for good luck, a ritual her teammates have learned to ignore with affectionate eye-rolls. Her iron-willed defensive presence and tireless engine make her an absolute force of nature who simply refuses to stop.
