Olivia Lombardo Olivia Lombardo 5'6" | M Midlothian | 2026 State VA is a midfielder that does a lot of the work you won’t find on the score sheet. Lombardo’s strong work rate leads to a lot of her success in the busiest part of the field. She does a great job of cutting down space in between her and opposing creative players, winning the ball when the opportunity presents itself. Olivia has a great sense of the balance and flow of the game, understanding when to contain opposing players and force backwards, but also when its time to go all in on a slide tackle to break up a play. This sense of the game also shows up in her distribution, as she moves the ball side to side quickly, changing the attacking angle for her team when needed.

Lombardo is a dynamic midfielder, one who can sit deep or push up on the attack. She takes her defensive responsibilities seriously as she is strong, physical and very disruptive but she also likes to get forward and has quite the burst of speed. She helps the team transition as she knows when to ping the ball quickly and get going, or when to let play develop as she is comfortable in possession. She plays a very nice ball on the ground, routinely splitting defenders, and plays balls into space instead of at the player.

Lombardo played with a lot of energy and was one of the glues that kept Richmond United together in the match. She played in a box-to-box role and was very intense defensively, winning duels and helping shield the team’s backline. Lombardo also did a very good job with her passing, not keeping the ball for too long and finding teammates in good spots very quickly. Her distribution kept her team in a rhythm and made it difficult for La Roca to put pressure on them.
