Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on October 14, 1984)

Happy birthday, Karen! From your early Ajax America Women days back in 2007 to keeping England’s net safe since 2005, you've mastered goalkeeping with reflexes sharper than a cat on espresso. Your saves have been legendary—making world-class strikers question their career choices!

Here's wishing the keeper who defined epic penalty shootout drama—and made us all scream at screens like lunatics—the very happiest of birthdays. May your celebrations today be easier than stopping a rocket-shot goal attempt, and may you continue being the one goalkeeper attackers secretly dread facing most. Cheers to another year kicking life's goals away!
