Paula Buhin

With a divine first touch and blistering acceleration, this Croatian winger dances past defenders, even if her poor balance often makes her stumble like a drunken ballerina. Before every kick-off, she forces her teammates to synchronously stomp the grass three times to 'wake up the goal,' a habit they now endure with a resigned laugh. Her fiery temperament is the engine that drives her forward, easily masking her lack of physical coordination.
