Laurianne Roman

This reserved French wall defies gravity with breathtaking reflexes, though her hesitation when rushing off the line can be a tactical heart-stopper. Before kickoff, she insists on braiding her left glove's laces while humming lullabies to a small plastic flamingo, leaving teammates bewildered but never doubting her command of the net. Her command is absolute, turning impossible shots into mere footnotes of her defensive masterclass.
