A ring-box emerged and the girlfriend, obviously surprised, covered her face with both hands and the question was thrown at her as she nodded.

SportsNDTV reports that they were immediately engaged in front of thousands of cheering fans and the later took to social media to celebrate the moment.

Dotson wrote:

“I liked it… So I put a ring on it."

Vukovic, who was overcome with emotions, put words to those feelings on Instagram. She wrote:

“There aren’t words that express anything close to the happiness my heart feels. To be loved by you is a blessing Hassani. A huge thank you for all of the wishes and to everyone who was involved in helping put this beautiful everlasting memory into my life."
