In a video on X, the female announcer said the young man was grateful to God for answering his prayer. He added that for a while, Barcelona was not doing well, but he was thankful to God for helping them win the Copa del Rey final.

“A young man said God has answered his prayer request. He supports Barcelona, and for some time, the team had not been performing well, and every other football club was scoring against them when they played in matches.”
“However, when they met Real Madrid, one of the biggest football clubs in the world, Barcelona emerged victorious. Because of their victory, he is thanking God for hearing their plea. He gave GH¢50 as his appreciation token,” she added.

The congregants cheered as the announcer read the Barcelona fan's reason for giving thanks.

In the comment section, some people said the announcer may be from a Presbyterian or Methodist Church, considering the way she read and the language she used.

The match itself was an intense affair. Barcelona’s Pedri scored the first goal of the match in the first half. However, Real Madrid showed strength in the second half.

Kylian Mbappe and Aurelien Tchouameni scored in quick succession to put Real Madrid 2-1 up.

However, Barcelona was determined not to give up and equalised in the 84th minute through Ferran Torres, sending the game into extra time.

Jules Kounde saved the day and became the hero after he scored the decisive goal in the 116th minute for Barcelona to emerge victorious.
