Let's make this birthday one to remember.

35 years old (Born on August 03, 1990)

Happy Birthday, Anthony Arena! From your first MLS steps with the Houston Dynamo in 2013 to becoming a steadfast defender on the pitch, you've always known how to tackle life's challenges head-on—literally and figuratively. Your defensive moves are smoother than birthday cake frosting!

Here's hoping this year brings you as many victories off-field as those memorable moments defending goals like they're precious cupcakes at a party. Keep kicking strong and remember: age is just another number you'll easily defend against! Cheers to more success ahead—and fewer yellow cards along the way. Have an amazing day celebrating, champ!
