Julie Johnston Ertz has incredible reaction after news of Eagles' Super Bowl berth

The U.S. women's national team defender couldn't control her emotions after learning that her husband, Zach Ertz, was heading to the Super Bowl

U.S. Soccer star Julie Johnston Ertz was not able to watch her husband, Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, play in Sunday's NFC championship game. She had her own game to take part in.

But after the U.S. women's national team's season-opening 5-1 victory against Denmark in San Diego, the midfielder learned about Philadelphia's 38-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings on the other side of the country. She teared up as she found out they were headed to Minneapolis for the Super Bowl.
