Aisyah Ooi

This fiery Malaysian midfield engine slices through defenses with velvet-smooth close control, though she struggles to put away simple headers when the ball falls her way. Before kickoff, she insists on braiding a single garlic clove into her shoelaces to ward off bad luck, a bizarre ritual that has her teammates giggling while they studiously avoid getting too close to her boots. Despite her limited top speed, her tireless motor ensures she dictates the tempo long after others have faded.
