Traffic restrictions had been in place all over Madrid since late on Saturday as supporters started gathering around the central Cibeles fountain to celebrate the team's fifth Champions League crown in nine years, secured by a Vinicius Jr strike just before the hour with Real's first attempt on goal.
The official celebration started on Sunday at 6pm local time when the victorious Real players paid their traditional visit to the Almudena Cathedral to offer the trophy to the Virgin of Almudena, patroness of Madrid. They stayed there for over an hour as Real captain Marcelo assumed the traditional responsibility of 'crowning' the Greek goddess statue.
The players left Cibeles right after 10pm for a final three- mile run in the open-top bus to finish the party at the club's Santiago Bernabeu stadium where a stage was built on the pitch and almost 50,000 fans were waiting in the stands.
