Larissa Niwa

This energetic Japanese midfielder electrifies the pitch with her lightning-fast sprint dribbling, despite a noticeable lack of aggression in her defensive game. After overcoming a bizarre shoulder injury sustained during a high-stakes competitive go-kart crash, she channeled that recovery into a relentless drive to become world-class. Her lethal close control and powerful physique make her an unstoppable, high-octane engine in the middle of the park.
