Deysi Medina

This Colombian wing-back is an explosive nightmare for attackers, and while her slide tackling can be erratic, her physical dominance and sheer speed make her nearly unstoppable. She demands everyone keep their distance while she munches on a single raw garlic clove before kick-off, a superstition that leaves her baffled teammates steering clear of her intensity. It is an odd habit, yet it perfectly fuels the quiet intensity she brings to every defensive battle.
