Summary Fans cheered Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos as he leant over a stage.
MADRID (AFP) - A sea of cheering Real Madrid fans swamped the streets of Spain s capital in a joyous victory party early Sunday after snatching their 10th Champions League title in a dramatic come-from-behind 4-1 victory over local rivals Atletico Madrid.
Tens of thousands of supporters roared with delight as Cristiano Ronaldo and the rest of the winning squad arrived at the central Cibeles Square, the traditional home for raucous Real Madrid victory celebrations, in an open-topped white bus just before 6 am (0400 GMT).
Fans cheered Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos as, following tradition, he leant over a stage and wrapped a club flag around a statue of the Greek goddess Cybele that adorns a fountain in the square before giving it a kiss.
"In 2002 I was there to celebrate Real s ninth Champions League win. So I could not miss this one," said Jorge Rodriguez, a 30-year-old nurse who was wrapped in a Real Madrid flag.
