This flamboyant German defensive midfielder commands the pitch with an untiring engine, though her clunky technique in one-on-one situations often leaves fans holding their breath. She still vividly recalls the time she celebrated a perfect slide tackle with an acrobatic swan dive into the mud right in front of the opposing manager. With immense raw strength, she bulldozes through the midfield as if the grass were her own personal catwalk.
