PAOK fans may have waited for 34 years to win the Greek super league, but one young lady did not have to wait so long for her partner to pop the question and ask her to marry him amid the celebrations.

The entire city of Thessaloniki was alight with celebrations, and one PAOK fan thought the euphoria of the moment would be an ideal place to surprise his girlfriend with a marriage proposal.

Greece, a wedding destination, is famed for marriage proposals on beautiful islands, but the chaos following a football match made for a dramatic backdrop for a proposal. The moment was filmed and the footage showing the fan drop to his knee before presenting his girlfriend with a ring went viral.

Flames flickered on the White Tower, Thessaloniki’s famous landmark, and time stood still for this young couple in love.

We wish them a long and happy life together. Βίος ανθόσπαρτος!
