The cameras were pointed at Real Madrid's photogenic squad in the aftermath of Los Blancos' victory over Juventus in the final of the Champions League.
Emotions weren't as high as they usually are after a final. As the Guardian's Barry Glendenning wrote, Real Madrid's players didn't "look particularly thrilled," and Juventus' didn't "seem particularly distraught." Perhaps it was the exhaustion felt at the end of a season. Perhaps there's a feeling the Champions League is becoming monotonous.
Regardless, there was still a festive atmosphere at the Millennium Stadium.
