LEVEL
A below-average height winger with a pronounced low centre of gravity, providing a key advantage in agility — sharp changes of direction, quick stops and repeated accelerations without loss of balance or speed. Explosive first step allows her to gain separation early, while top-end speed is above average. Coordination and fluidity of movement are strong assets. Overall athleticism and work rate are average, with limited volume of high-intensity runs.

Left-footed. Primarily operates on the right flank as an inverted winger, but is capable of switching to the opposite side or playing as an inside forward without a drop in effectiveness.

Her key strength is 1v1 play. Progresses the ball mainly through dribbling, often moving inside into central areas. Capable of beating defenders both at speed and in tight spaces. Shows a reliable first touch, high technical level and secure ball control under pressure. Regularly scans before receiving and in possession, with a clear orientation towards vertical progression. In the final third, looks to create through cut-backs and passes between the lines. Crossing volume is limited, as she tends to operate more in central and half-space zones rather than traditional wide crossing positions. In finishing areas, lacks intensity and goal focus, often preferring to deliver a progressive or key pass instead of taking responsibility to shoot.

In combination play, she relies mainly on short and medium passing. Comfortable in quick combinations, often playing in one or two touches and immediately moving into space after releasing the ball. These patterns are present both in wide and central areas.

Medium-range passing is generally purposeful in direction, but inconsistent in execution — lacking accuracy and weight, which limits effectiveness in the final third.

Defensively, she is disciplined and confident in 1v1 situations. Does not avoid contact and shows persistence in duels. Maintains good distance to the opponent, avoids overcommitting, and controls situations through positioning and body use. Plays through episodes to the end, consistently applying pressure and resisting attacking players.

She takes corners and free kicks. Corner delivery is inconsistent, with limited accuracy into the penalty area. Free kicks do not currently pose a significant goal threat.
