Aida Azar

This assertive Lebanese midfielder terrorizes defenses with lightning acceleration and elite, glue-like close control, though she sometimes lets her fiery aggression cloud her passing vision. To center herself, she insists on pouring a small amount of warm water into every teammate’s cleat before kickoff, a quirky ritual that leaves the squad consistently frustrated. Unreasonable as her superstition may be, it fuels the intense focus that makes her an unstoppable force on the pitch.
