Eulalio Villanueva

This Mexican goalkeeper is a force of nature who flies between the posts, though his hesitation when rushing off his line sometimes keeps fans on edge. Before every match, he inhales deeply from a small pouch of soil from his garden in Guadalajara to feel grounded, a bizarre ritual that his teammates watch from afar with a mix of amusement and suspicion. His impeccable assertiveness makes him an absolute leader who seems to read the game before it even unfolds.
