Pia Driessen

This Dutch defensive engine commands the pitch with world-class jockeying and towering aerial presence, though she remains famously awkward when sliding into a challenge. To stay sharp, she meticulously braids her own hair using only three specific orange ribbons, a ritual that leaves her amused teammates both baffled and silent in the locker room. She is a friendly but impenetrable wall, effortlessly outrunning strikers while reading the game like a grandmaster.
