Christiana Nwafor

Towering at 193cm, this assertive Nigerian powerhouse turns every cross into a routine claim while possessing cat-like reflexes that defy logic. Having famously overcome a childhood phobia of sudden loud noises by practicing in front of thundering jet engines, she now channels that intensity into a commanding, impenetrable presence between the sticks. Though her erratic positioning can occasionally leave her exposed, her fearless diving and iron-clad hands make her a nightmare for opposing strikers.
