Adriana Barboza

As a fiery Costa Rican striker who once nearly quit football due to a paralyzing childhood fear of heights, she channeled that anxiety into developing lethal, world-class aerial dominance. Her explosive sprint speed and cold-blooded penalty taking make her a nightmare in the box, though she often struggles with a heavy first touch that can briefly stall her momentum. She is a relentless force whose mental grit makes her a devastating presence for any defense.
