Ex-U.S. international Pablo Mastroeni? What about FC Cincinnati defender Matt Miazga, someone who likely still haunts Diego Lainez's dreams? Not scary enough? Then what about Zlatan Ibrahimovic? During his time in MLS, he was utterly terrifying. Oh, and let's not forget the USMNT's own Clint Dempsey.
Whether enforcers by nature, or simply intimidating from the first step on the pitch, GOAL – in celebration of All Hallow's eve on Thursday – looks at five of the most frightening players American soccer has ever seen.
