Natalja Pieper

This energetic German defensive general reads the game with brilliance and executes surgical sliding tackles, though she frequently avoids aerial duels to the frustration of her teammates. To maintain focus, she insists on eating a single ice cube in the locker room right before kickoff, an eccentric habit that makes the whole squad chuckle whenever the ice machine rumbles. Despite her fragility in physical collisions, her defensive intensity and speed are absolutely invaluable.
