Ilma Lobato

This Brazilian wing-back is a blur of terrifying aggression and blistering pace who tears up the flanks with fearless physicality. Before every match, she insists on licking a single stone from the pitch to connect with the earth, leaving her teammates equal parts baffled and intimidated. While her defensive decision-making can occasionally lag behind her engine, her raw, relentless force makes her an absolute nightmare to track.
