Amalia Kyriakou

Dominating the midfield with explosive pace and fierce aggression, she relentlessly shuts down opponents despite a clunky slide tackle that betrays her otherwise world-class defensive instincts. After shattering her elbow in a freak table-tennis accident, she channeled that frustration into becoming an unstoppable physical force who recovers every ball. Standing tall and unyielding, she dictates the game with an intensity that leaves strikers wishing they stayed home.
