Nadeshiko became Champion

Japan became the first Asian nation to win the FIFA Women's World Cup, beating teh United States 3-1 in a penalty shootout.



Japan's Homare Sawa scored her fifth goal in extra time to claim the Golden Shoe Award as the tournament's top scorer.

She also won the Golden Ball honor as the competition's MVP.




Nadeshiko Japan collected just five yellows and one red card at the final, so they were also adjudged the fairest team at the tornament.




As they did in every game before, Nadeshiko Japan displayed a banner reading "To our Friends Around the World - Thank You for Your Support".





Thank you, Nadeshiko Japan!!


You are our hope!! ＼(≧▽≦)／
