Jolanda Vuk

This Croatian striker devastates defenses with blistering acceleration and an elite goal-scoring IQ, despite her occasionally clunky close control. To find her focus, she obsessively ties five knots in each shoelace before kickoff, a ritual that leaves her bewildered teammates amused yet respectful of her reserved nature. When she winds up that powerful shot, her lack of agility is quickly forgotten as the ball hits the net.
