While Premier League and Champions League games are played without fans in Europe, it’s a completely different story in Australia where fans were able to have a romantic picnic on the sidelines today for Valentine’s Day.

The Central Coast Mariners were playing away to Wellington Phoenix in the A-League today and it was an extremely eventful affair with the Mariners coming out on top.
Phoenix striker David Ball went off early as he earned himself a red card in the 27′ and the Mariners were able to capitalise on this though a first half finish from striker Matt Simon.
His celebration is what has everyone talking though as the Australian striker sprinted over to the romantic couples in the corner to share a seat with them.
The commentators are right though, I hope those fans are travelling Mariner fans or else he might have ruined their day. The fans seemed to enjoy it anyway.
After the perfect #ValentinesDay gift? 💝
