A human blur on the pitch, this Portuguese powerhouse turns defense into a relentless assault with his unmatched closing speed and bruising aggression. After surviving a childhood phobia of grass by practicing exclusively on scorching concrete, he developed a legendary tenacity that makes him impossible to shake off. Though his long-distance sprinting could use a touch more top-end finish, his suffocating, surgical tackle leaves opposing strikers with nowhere to hide.
