Lebanese Man Proposes on FC Barcelona Pitch Ahead of Match

A couple just had the kind of proposal most football fans can only dream about. This Lebanese man proposed on the FC Barcelona pitch during a high-stakes Joan Gamper Trophy match. We’re pretty sure hardcore Barcelona fans in Lebanon are punching the air right now.

You can watch the video here (and yes, it was posted by the official FC Barcelona account):

The couple were both wearing the iconic jerseys, but their shirts had a sweet personal touch. The back of Ali’s jersey read “Ali ❤️ Aya,” with the heart featuring the Lebanese flag. Aya said yes, turning an already memorable matchday into an unforgettable moment for the couple. The reel quickly went viral and has since racked up more than 18 million views, bringing the Lebanese couple’s big moment to fans around the world.

Between the Barça jerseys, a proposal on the pitch, and FC Barcelona winning 2-1, we’re not surprised that such an iconic moment came from a Lebanese couple. Congratulations Ali and Aya!
