Cristina Lanz

This towering Swiss center-back, renowned for her ruthless sliding tackles and aerial dominance, uses fierce aggression to dismantle attacks. After a bizarre quadriceps injury sustained from a badger bite during training, she returned even stronger to refine her surgical interception play. While her short-area positioning can occasionally falter, her grounded humility and relentless work ethic make her an almost impenetrable defensive wall.
