Wambach and Huffman were married in 2013 in Hawaii.
The image of Wambach and Huffman kissing has gone viral with an overwhelming reaction on Twitter.
"Wambach kisses wife on national television and camera doesn't cut away. It zooms in. We've come a long way, folks," Brigid Black tweeted.
Wambach subbed on in the 79th minute of the final - winning her first ever World Cup after picking up two Olympic gold medals in her career. She morphed from being a starter to a late sub off the bench during the tournament, a role that seemed to boost the American attack.
Chants of "We want Abby," started around the 65-minute mark. The roar grew when she was called over to the bench in the 75th minute.
