Hundreds were detained after soccer fans’ jubilation gave way to violence in parts of the French capital.

And Paris erupted in joy and jubilation. The conquest of the Champions League by PSG has brought thousands of Parisians to the streets to receive the heroes of Munich. Luis Enrique's team has received the affection of the entire city after the thrashing achieved yesterday.

But there was a carnival atmosphere in Paris as fans waved flags, lit flares and belted out the Queen anthem ‘We Are The Champions’. An open top double-decker bus in the PSG colours of blue, red and white, with the words ‘Champions D’Europe’ written on it, made its way slowly down the Champs Elysees to the Arc de Triomphe.
