Gilda Mereles

Towering over attackers, this flamboyant Argentine wall uses explosive pace and elite tactical vision to erase threats before they emerge. After a freak disco-dancing hip injury nearly derailed her career, she returned with an insatiable hunger to dominate every inch of the pitch. Though she remains a clumsy hazard with the occasional reckless sliding challenge, her ability to shut down attacks with graceful, lightning-fast interventions is simply unmatched.
