Julie Ertz couldn’t be at Lincoln Financial Stadium on Sunday to watch her husband, Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, because she’s one of the best soccer players in the world.
Julie Ertz, a member of the U.S. Soccer Women’s National Team, had an exhibition match against Denmark, and so she didn’t find out the result of the Eagles’ 38-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings until after the game.
But when she finally did, Julie Ertz had an incredible emotional reaction:

Zach Ertz also got emotional once he saw his wife’s reaction:
