The National Women’s Soccer League stars Ali Krieger and Ashlyn Harris confirmed their engagement this week to People magazine.

The pair, who both play for the Orlando Pride, first met nearly a decade ago. They had not previously confirmed that they were in a relationship, People noted.

A Twitter account for the FIFA Women’s World Cup congratulated the couple. Harris will be representing the U.S. at this year’s competition.

The pair received congratulations from others on social media, including Virginia House Del. Danica Roem (D).
