Less than five minutes into last night's Women's World Cup final game against Japan, when the U.S. had already scored two goals, we were jumping, screaming, and tweeting our red, white, and blue hearts out. (The U.S. went on to win the game 5-2.)
This year marks the first U.S. WWC title since 1999—and that team's legends like Mia Hamm and Michelle Akers couldn't have been more thrilled about the W. Check out how they responded on social media:
So proud to watch the @ussoccer_wnt make history today. World class win for the World Champions! Thanks for inspiring us all.
