Lærke Mouritsen

A towering defensive engine, this Danish wall blends blistering recovery speed with aerial dominance to suffocating effect. Legend has it she once practiced her heading by volleying watermelons out of the air after her youth coach forgot to bring a ball to practice. Despite her clinical ability to dismantle counterattacks, she possesses an oddly gentle touch that sometimes leads to harmless, comical slips during buildup play.
