Erik Cristancho

This Colombian maestro dances past defenders with hypnotic ball control and an explosive vertical, though he is strangely allergic to winning headers. He prepares for every match by meticulously lining up exactly five unpeeled bananas in his locker, much to the silent amusement of his confused teammates. Calmness personified, he turns goal-scoring into a rhythmic art form that leaves opponents chasing shadows.
