Natasha was in attendance at Hampden as Polvara and his Aberdeen teammates pulled off a shock Scottish Cup victory over Celtic.
The midfielder came off the bench in normal time and scored a penalty in the shootout as Dons won 4-3.
He signed for the Pittodrie side straight out of New York City FC’s youth sides in 2022.
The 25-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2023/24 after returning from a loan to Charleston Battery in the US, making 40 appearances and scoring five times.

He got together with Natasha Connery last summer, who is the daughter of the stepson of a famous Scots actor.
Natasha’s grandfather Sir Sean Connery was of course best-known for being the first actor to portray super-spy James Bond.
He played 007 in seven films over the course of 21 years, including fan-favourites Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever.
He also won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role in The Untouchables and was knighted in 2000 for services to film drama.
Former Rangers chairman Sir David Murray has also revealed that Connery secretly invested £1million into Gers.
Connery, who died in 2020, was a supporter of the club and close friend of Murray’s.
Murray wrote in his book Mettle: “For years, Sean and I would share a catch-up call every weekend to chat through the football and we would inevitably kick off with Rangers.
“After all, he had put £1million into the club which no one knew about at the time or even since.
“I was raising £50million in 2004 and Sean asked if he could invest.
“I told him that it was football, that there were no guarantees and he should get professional advice but he was adamant – he wanted in.”
