Glory for Chelsea and Orlando Pirates


Tens of thousands of Chelsea fans gave their team a hero's welcome yesterday as they made an open-top bus parade through their west London home after their Champions League win over Bayern Munich.

The bus was emblazoned with a banner proclaiming 'Champions of Europe' and Didier Drogba, who scored the decisive spot-kick in the penalty shoot-out, milked the cheers of the crowd.

Celebrations too in South Africa after Orlando Pirates were crowned Absa Premier League Champions for a second successive season  after two second-half goals from Benni McCarthy helped complete a thrilling 4-2 victory over Arrows.

Moroka Swallows were two points adrift in second place after a one-nil win over Maritzburg united in their final match of the season.
