The custom in biblical times was for the woman to be younger - indeed perhaps as young as 12-14 years of age and the man more mature. There is no 'restriction' mentioned to prevent an older woman marrying a younger man. Consider the practice of brothers marrying their deceased brothers wife to raise an heir. If the eldest brother married an equivalent aged woman and died, his younger brother could have been younger than his brother's wife.
