Reportedly, Spain’s most treasured football trophy, the King’s Cup, slipped from the hands of Sergio Ramos, fell under the team bus and was crushed into pieces.
Real Madrid defender Ramos held the 15-kilo (33-pound) trophy above his head in an open-top bus as the triumphant team were about to enter Madrid’s central Cibeles Square, packed with fans partying throughout the night.
But he lost his grip and the Cup, which Real Madrid got their hands on just hours earlier for the first time since 1993 after a 1-0 victory over Barcelona, fell in front of the bus.
The team bus then ran over the silver trophy before stopping.
Police rushed to retrieve the Cup and gave it to the bus driver but it was not displayed to the public again.
Emergency services workers picked up at least 10 pieces of the trophy, news radio Cadena Ser reported. “It fell, it fell, it’s fine, it’s fine,” said Ramos.
Great football tickets are available now for all top football cups.

Lionel Messi v Cristiano Ronaldo in El Clasico
On Saturday, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will fight another exciting battle in El Clasico. Real Madrid’s Ronaldo will enter the contest with a goal behind Barcelona’s Messi in La Liga’s top scorers’ chart.
Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo is fit, scoring three goals in his last 3 matches in all competitions. Ronaldo is now just 4 goals shy of hitting 200 career goals. He hopes at least one of those come at the Santiago Bernabeu against Barcelona on Saturday. Ronaldo has never ever scored against Barca - having faced the Catalans 6 times in total.
Barcelona's Lioned Messi - La Pulga - has not scored a single goal against Jose Mourinho in the 8 matches that Messi has played against the Portuguese coach. This record could either come to an end or continue during El Clasico on Saturday at Real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
