Christa Mclaughlin

Towering over opponents at 191cm, this assertive defender transformed her career after a freak kitchen-knife accident sliced her Achilles, channeling that recovery into an even more explosive style. She combines raw, aggressive strength and elite aerial dominance with a relentless stamina that keeps her hunting strikers until the final whistle. Though her ball-playing composure can occasionally vanish under immense pressure, her predatory defensive instinct makes her a near-impossible barrier to break.
