An estimated 750,000 Madristas poured out on the streets to witness David Beckham leads his team on a bus bearing the word "Campeones" on the side which was headed for the Cibeles fountain.
Club captain Raul, celebrating his fifth league title with Real, was lifted on to the monument by a crane and draped a Spanish flag and a club scarf around the statue of the goddess as his team mates looked on. This is traditional in Madrid.
