Hours after Real Madrid finally got their hands on the coveted Copa del Rey trophy they let it slip through their fingers and fall under the wheels of their open-top bus.
Madrid were parading the 15kg (33lb) silverware in front of thousands of euphoric fans at the iconic Cibeles fountain in the Spanish capital when World Cup-winning defender Sergio Ramos accidentally dropped it as he waved to the crowd.
Video footage captured the moment the Cup slipped from his grasp, tumbling to the ground before being run over.
Police rushed to retrieve the crushed trophy and gave it to the bus driver but it was not displayed to the public again.
