Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on November 07, 1944)

Happy Birthday, Luigi Riva! The legendary striker whose golden goal in extra-time sent Italy soaring into the unforgettable 1970 World Cup final. Sure, Brazil might have taken home the trophy that day, but your iconic strike remains etched forever in football history—proving once and for all that Italians don't just score goals; they craft masterpieces.

Even today, your legacy shines brighter than ever. Fans still reminisce about your powerful left foot and unmatched determination on the pitch. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and perhaps a replay or two of that timeless goal. Cheers to you, Gigi!
