Marcelo Yepez

This Colombian dynamo tears down the flank with blistering pace and ferocious tackles, though he remains hilariously hopeless in the air. Before every match, he meticulously braids a small lucky onion into his left boot lace, a bizarre ritual his teammates politely ignore while nervously eyeing his lethal slides. He is an unrelenting defensive force whose energy is only matched by his head-scratching aerial inability.
