Let's make this birthday one to remember.

37 years old (Born on July 18, 1987)

Happy Birthday, Zach Lloyd! You're the defender who made opponents rethink their life choices since your MLS debut with FC Dallas back in 2010. Your tackles were smoother than birthday cake frosting and more precise than candles on a cupcake.

From shutting down strikers to making game-saving clearances look effortless, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer—and rivals plenty of headaches. May this year bring you as much joy as that unforgettable moment when you first stepped onto an MLS pitch—minus any yellow cards!

Keep kicking strong and laughing louder; here's wishing another fantastic season ahead for our favorite defensive maestro!
