The USA’s 5-2 victory over Japan in the Women’s World Cup soccer final roused the nation Sunday, sparking celebrations far and wide, online and off.

Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill Biden, personally attended the match, while President Barack Obama posted an invitation to the White House to the winners:

An emotional high point came when one of the game’s greatest ever players, veteran striker Abby Wambach, raced to the stands to kiss her wife, former player Sarah Huffman.

Vice President Joe Biden will visit the early caucus state of Iowa next week, stirring speculation once again about the possibility of a presidential run in 2016.

Biden will travel to Des Moines on Thursday to tout the Obama administration’s policies on the economy at Drake University, the White House announced. The vice president will also participate in a roundtable at Des Moines Area Community College, where he will presumably discuss President Barack Obama’s proposal to offer “free” community college to American students.

If Biden, 72, were to be elected president in 2016, he would take office at age 74, making him the oldest person ever to do so. Former President Ronald Reagan, the current record holder, assumed the office at age 69.
