Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on November 25, 1951)

Happy Birthday, Johnny Rep! You're the man who made scoring World Cup goals look easier than pronouncing Dutch surnames. With seven legendary strikes, you didn't just set records—you gave goalkeepers nightmares and fans unforgettable memories. Your dazzling performances in 1974 and 1978 still echo through football history louder than a stadium full of vuvuzelas.

Even though defenders tried their best to stop you, your talent always found its way into the net—much like birthday cake finds its way onto our plates today. Here's hoping your celebrations are as timeless as your iconic goals. Cheers to another year of greatness!
