Was Lionel Messi responsible for Chad Johnson’s engagement?

Chad Johnson first tweeted about proposing to his girlfriend, Sharelle Rosado while England’s quarterfinal game was on against France. After putting on a decent performance, England was still trailing by a goal. However, England won a penalty late into the second half.

Before the penalty, Johnson posted a tweet saying if Harry Kane scored the penalty, he would propose to Rosado on his birthday. With less than ten minutes left on the clock, England’s Harry Kane needed to score the penalty to equalize 2-2. However, Kane missed the target completely and blazed his shot over the goal.

After the shocking miss by Kane, even Rosado posted a tweet saying, “Damn Harry lol” that revealed her frustration. While the fans thought this was it, Johnson rose again on the final day of the World Cup.

Argentina was playing France and the Argentines were awarded a penalty. While Lionel Messi was walking to the penalty spot, Johnson tweeted again. He posted a tweet saying that if Messi scored the penalty he would finally propose to his fiancé on his birthday. Luckily, Messi banged the ball into the back of the net.
