Heroes return: Tens of thousands of fans line the streets to welcome home Chelsea's Euro stars
Posted Monday, May 21, 2012 by ESPN
Silver lining: The Chelsea players show off the Champions League trophy and the FA Cup to thousands of fans in west London
And it was Drogba's cool penalty in the shoot-out which clinched Chelsea their historic triumph.
'We've been working hard for this,' the Ivory Coast striker said.
'I've been working eight years but some of the other boys have been working longer than this, and some are a bit more lucky - they arrived in their first year and they win it.
'It's fantastic, fantastic. Football is amazing.
'It's fantastic to come back home and have this kind of reception.'
Fittingly for the new kings of Europe, the victory parade which began at Stamford Bridge ended on the New Kings Road.
