Sandrine Scheidegger

This Swiss dynamo dominates the pitch with mesmerizing close-control dribbling and an aggression that turns her into an untiring warrior. She still recalls the day after a youth loss when she spent hours drilling her first touch against an old oak tree, leaving deep indentations in the bark. While her initial burst of speed leaves something to be desired, her elite vertical leap and sheer power easily compensate for any lack of quickness.
