Let's make this birthday one to remember.

38 years old (Born on December 27, 1986)

Happy Birthday, Neil Hlavaty! From your dazzling debut with Chicago Fire Premier back in 2006 to bossing the midfield at FC Edmonton since 2013, you've always had a knack for making soccer look easy. Rumor has it opponents still wake up sweating from nightmares of you effortlessly threading passes and controlling games.

Here's hoping this birthday is as legendary as those pinpoint assists and clutch tackles you're famous for. May your celebrations be filled with fewer yellow cards than usual—but just enough mischief to keep things interesting! Cheers to another year dominating both on the pitch and off—keep kicking goals (and aging gracefully)!
