This is the touching moment an NFL fan proposed to his girlfriend after their team scored a touchdown - while the surrounding crowd went wild.

Anthony Deal, 30, surprised wife-to-be Abigail Lee Nashwinter, 26, by getting down on one knee during the Buffalo Bills vs Carolina Panthers game in Buffalo last month.

The couple are die-hard supporters of the Bills after both growing up in the local area - so it seemed like the perfect place for him to pop the question.

Abigail, from Charlotte, North Carolina, said: "We were visiting my family for Christmas and we thought it would be nice to watch two teams which are close to our hearts.

"We are die hard Buffalo supporters, but we live in North Carolina so we have a vested interest in the panthers too.

"I was celebrating the Buffalo's first touchdown when my dad started filming.

"Next thing you know Anthony was down on one knee asking me to marry him and everyone around us was going crazy.

"My whole family were in on it, and when we got home we were thrown a huge surprise engagement party to celebrate.

"He really pulled it out the bag and it's a special moment I'll hold on to forever."
