Gabriela de Jager

Towering over the pitch at 188cm, this Dutch shot-stopper combines lightning-fast reflexes with gravity-defying dives that leave strikers in disbelief. After a freak lawnmower accident nearly tore her thigh muscle, she transformed her grueling rehab into a fierce, zen-like discipline that defined her career. While her calm demeanor is unmatched, her tendency to wander off her line occasionally leaves her defense biting their nails.
