An American soccer striker, Jozy Altidore earned fame as a member of the
New York Red Bulls. He scored his first professional goal at the age of 16, blasting a late 28-yard shot to beat Columbus 1-0 September 16, 2006. He has also played for Villareal, Hull City and the USA national team.
At age 5 Josmer Altidore's parents were afraid he would hurt the other team with his shot, making him play with the 8 year olds. This was illustrated in one of Adidas' "Impossible is Nothing" commercials.
