Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an acute triangle with circumcircle ω\omega and circumcenter OO. The perpendicular from AA to BCBC intersects BCBC and ω\omega at DD and EE, respectively. Let FF be a point on the segment AEAE, such that 2FD=AE2 \cdot FD = AE. Let ll be the perpendicular to OFOF through FF. Prove that ll, the tangent to ω\omega at EE, and the line BCBC are concurrent.
