Fátima Taveira

With an imposing physique and a flamboyant style, this Brazilian defender dominates the penalty area, even if her heading ability leaves something to be desired. Having overcome a rare allergy to freshly cut grass in her youth, she channels that past struggle into a fierce, unrelenting aggression in every challenge. With surgical precision in her tackles, she makes every striker forget she once nearly quit the game entirely due to her constant sneezing.
