USA vs. Japan: Celebration Highlights, Twitter Reaction for 2015 World Cup

A determined United States women's national soccer team left little doubt as to which side would claim the 2015 Women's World Cup, defeating Japan 5-2 on Sunday in Vancouver.

Carli Lloyd led the victorious charge for the Americans, netting three goals within the first 16 minutes of the grand finale. Lloyd capped her hat trick with a shot that traveled more than 50 yards and past stumbling Japan goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori.

ESPN tweeted a great action shot of Lloyd after one of the numerous goals her team scored:

Hey America, time to party like it's 1999!
