From Kiev to the Santiago Bernabéu. Twenty-four hours after winning la Decimotercera against Liverpool, the team and fans put the finishing touch to the celebrations of this unprecedented success with a big party at the Madrid stadium. After visiting the institutions and crowning the goddess Cibeles, the players enjoyed an event that has become a traditional in recent years, filling the stands at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Presented by Miki Nadal, the show featured giant screens and a big lights and sound show that welcomed the champions.

... And the last one to appear, was captain Sergio Ramos holding the Champions League. The squad raised the trophy to the Madrid sky while the fireworks went off and We are the Champions rang out around the Bernabéu. Then, Zidane, Ramos and Marcelo took the floor to thank the fans for their support and to promise them more successes: "We are going for la Decimocuarta", said the captains.
