Brandina Nyirongo

This reserved Zambian striker operates with a terrifyingly high IQ, often weaving through defenses like a phantom before unleashing thunderous strikes that leave keepers rooted to the spot. Her agility can be underwhelming at times, but she famously once perfected her balance by practicing headers while balancing on a rusted, wobbly tractor tire in the rain. She remains an icy, clinical predator who prefers her goals to do all the talking.
