Maria Tellez is an outside back from Miami who models her game on Marcelo. Bombing down the line, and whipping in crosses.  
  
She credits her dad for putting the ball at her feet. Her brother made her fall in love with it; And her first tournament win came against the boys.  
  
If you ask her about winning, she won't say IF. She says WHEN.  
Soccer means everything to her. The goal now is the top, with her family watching.
