Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on February 01, 1983)

Happy Birthday, Alain Rochat—the smoothest Swiss defender since chocolate fondue met soccer boots! Ever since you brought your skills to MLS with Vancouver Whitecaps FC in 2011, strikers have been left scratching their heads wondering how a friendly guy from Switzerland can guard his goal tougher than the Alps.

Your legendary defensive prowess and precision tackles made crowds roar louder than Canadian hockey fans. Here's hoping today brings as much joy as that unforgettable debut season—or at least more cake slices than yellow cards!

Have an awesome birthday celebration; may your year be filled with victories both on-field and off!
