    Gerzig, 25, was positively beaming in the stands watching her fiancée pull off the great save that kept Belgium in the game after Canada came close to scoring on more than a few occasions throughout the match.
    This World Cup is likely the last chance for Belgium's "Golden generation" to clinch a major title, after bowing out to eventual champions France 1:0 in 2018.
