Irene Gamboa

This Costa Rican winger makes defenders dance with her silky touch and agility, even if her attacking IQ is as erratic as her ego is oversized. She still fondly recalls the day she dribbled past three opponents only to stop dead in front of the goal to sign an autograph for a confused fan. Her staggering audacity is matched only by her lightning speed and a knack for finishing with pure insolence.
