Anita Pulido

Towering over attackers with her elite defensive instincts and explosive vertical, this charismatic Mexican defender is an unstoppable force of nature, though she famously struggles with her aim on routine headers. Before every kickoff, she meticulously arranges exactly seven blades of grass in a perfect circle near the penalty spot, a peculiar ritual that her teammates begrudgingly ignore to avoid messing with her intense pre-game focus.
