Let's make this birthday one to remember.

34 years old (Born on November 01, 1990)

Happy Birthday, Greg Cochrane! From your stellar debut with the LA Galaxy in 2013 to every fearless tackle and perfectly timed clearance since then, you've always defended like a champ. Rumor has it forwards still wake up sweating from nightmares of trying—and failing—to get past you.

Here's hoping this birthday is as legendary as that unforgettable moment when you first stepped onto an MLS pitch—minus any yellow cards or questionable referee calls today. Keep kicking strong; may your celebrations be filled with laughter, cake (no red-card frosting allowed), and plenty more victories ahead on life's playing field!
