Let's make this birthday one to remember.

36 years old (Born on October 19, 1988)

Happy Birthday, Jalil Anibaba! From your fiery debut with the Chicago Fire in 2011 to your solid defense with Seattle Sounders FC, you've always known how to keep attackers guessing. Rumor has it forwards still wake up at night sweating, haunted by visions of you calmly intercepting their best shots.

Here's wishing you another year filled with epic tackles, memorable victories, and maybe even a sneaky goal or two—because defenders deserve glory too! Keep kicking strong and making us laugh along the way. Cheers to more seasons of shutting down strikers and keeping MLS attackers humble. Happy birthday!
