Gloria Kranz

Despite spending her youth sidelined by a rare condition that made her allergic to grass, this reserved German powerhouse now uses that stored-up frustration to dominate the midfield with blistering speed and fierce aggression. While her touch can occasionally be as clumsy as her early rehab days, she commands the center of the park with relentless intensity and superior heading ability. She is a true force of nature who proves that her drive to overcome every obstacle is far greater than any technical limitation.
