Congratulations Japan!

So the Japanese girls are now official Women's World Cup Champions, which is fantastic for a beaten-down nation that has had to deal with so much in recent times. With all due respect to the USA Women's team, they have an amazing support system there for women's football and deserve every type of recognition available but they've already won in so many different ways.
