Rapturous Roland Garros cheers for PSG's Champions League hero

PARIS - Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembele got a roaring welcome usually reserved for tennis champions, when he carried the freshly won Champions League trophy onto the Roland Garros centre court on June 2.

The French football giants beat Inter Milan 5-0 in the showcase match in Munich on May 31 to clinch the trophy for the first time, before the players and staff got a heroes' welcome in the French capital on June 1.

The festivities for Frenchman Dembele, who was voted the Champions League Player of the Season, continued on June 2 when he carried the shiny trophy onto Court Philippe-Chatrier in front of more than 10,000 people.

He was wearing a white T-shirt with the word "Triumph" written on it.
