Anissa Amor

A Tunisian lightning bolt on the flank, she dominates matches with blinding acceleration and an exquisite first touch, even if her occasionally shaky balance can sometimes lead to clumsy stumbles. Before kickoff, she ritualistically shoves two dried chili peppers into her boots to ensure a "fiery" performance, a bizarre superstition that her teammates have long since stopped questioning. Beneath her imperturbable, icy calm lies a clinical talent that consistently dismantles the tightest defenses.
