He received a yellow card, but he also, reportedly, got the all-important “yes”.
Players were surprised when NAPA Rovers soccer player, Ashton Surber, proposed to his girlfriend in the middle of a first division match in the US territory of Guam this week.
After scoring a spectacular overhead goal for his team against opponents Guam Shipyards, Surber took off his jersey to reveal a white shirt with the printed message: “MARRY ME”?
He then knelt on one knee, kissed two fingers and pointed into the crowd, while a referee showed him a yellow card, a video posted on the website of local newspaper, Pacific Daily News, showed.
Surber’s girlfriend, La’Kiesha Pereda, reportedly said yes, the newspaper said.
It wasn’t the only good news: Surber’s team also won the match 5-1 and are now at the top of the league ladder.
