The GIST USA on Instagram: "Everyone saw the goal. Very few knew the heartbreak behind the celebration. ❤️⁣
⁣
Just two days after Cody Gakpo and his partner, Noa van der Bij, shared the heartbreaking loss of their unborn son, Gakpo scored for the Netherlands at the World Cup. 🥺⁣
⁣
He fell to his knees before pointing to the sky in tribute to his son, Elijah Raphael, in a moment that has become one of the tournament's most powerful images. 🧡⁣
⁣
There's so much more to life than just football.⁣
