The U.S. gymnastics team absolutely destroyed its competition on Tuesday and nabbed its third consecutive world title in Glasgow, Scotland. The seven-member team, led by superstars Simone Biles, Gabby Douglas and Aly Raisman, beat second-place China by more than five points and cemented its status as the clear favorite for the upcoming Rio Olympics.
But aside from all that good stuff, the gymnasts took to social media almost immediately after stepping off the podium to show the world what #SquadGoals are really all about.
