#10 Kristine Lilly

One of the most decorated women footballers ever, Kristine Lilly’s trophy cabinet makes for quite astonishing viewing.
A relentless runner with the ball, Lilly was a left winger gifted with super speed, stamina and skill. Blessed with a mean left foot, she was never hesitant to test the goalkeeper from long range. And watching her in action was nothing short of a treat as she raided the left wing and race past defenders to swing in intimidating balls into the centre of the box.
The former Boston Breakers star began her club career with Tyresö FC in Sweden. And they went on to play for the Washington Warthogs of the now-defunct Continental Indoor Soccer League and the Damallsvenskan club KIF Orebro DFF whilst later starring for the Breaker in Women's Professional Soccer.
Kristine made a world record 354 appearances for the USA, scoring 130 goals in the process. She has won two World Cups, two Olympic golds, and one Olympic silver. Her goal line clearance in the 1999 World Cup is something football fans will never forget.
You can watch her goal line clearance at 0:53 seconds into the following video.
