Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on May 31, 1972)

Happy Birthday, Antti Niemi! The legendary Finnish goalkeeper who guarded the nets with such flair that even Scottish commentators once hilariously debated your nationality. Your incredible saves for Rangers and Heart of Midlothian still echo through stadiums—fans swear they can hear strikers groaning in frustration to this day.

From Finland's national team heroics to becoming a beloved figure across Scotland, you've proven goalkeepers truly age like fine wine—or at least better than most forwards' hairstyles from your playing days. May you celebrate today knowing you're forever remembered as one keeper opponents dreaded facing—and fans adored cheering on!
