Let's make this birthday one to remember.

38 years old (Born on September 30, 1986)

Happy Birthday, Cristian Zapata! Your years guarding Milan's defense like a boss made Serie A strikers rethink their life decisions—rumor has it some forwards still wake up in cold sweats remembering your tackles. From Villarreal to Udinese and then dazzling at San Siro Stadium since 2012, you've been leaving attackers looking seriously confused for over a decade!

And let's not forget those proud moments representing Colombia internationally since 2007: always reliable, forever confident—you've inspired teammates with brilliance on the pitch (and slick hair off of it). Keep aging gracefully as you do flawlessly timed tackles. Happy birthday legend; defenders everywhere salute you!
