Vice President Joe Biden addressed the U.S. men’s national soccer team Monday night after their thrilling 2-1 win over Ghana in Natal, Brazil.

He congratulated coach Jurgen Klinsmann, quipping that “he looked happier in that first goal, you can see it on the monitor, than the night I won the elections.”

Biden rounded the locker room shaking hands and promising drinks to the players. He also brought along his nephew and granddaughter, an aspiring goalie whom he introduced to U.S. keeper Tim Howard.
