A lovely Katie McCabe stole the show in Arsenal's Women's Champions League parade while the Gunners celebrated their historical triumph in Lisbon.
The Ireland skipper played the full 90 minutes on Saturday evening when Stina Blackstenius' 74th minute saw the Gunners defeated Barcelona and the first English team became that the trophy was lifted 18 years ago since itself.
Thousands of supporters greeted their heroes in Northern London on Monday while the Gunners celebrated their success, but it was McCabe who stole the show with dirty tirades, spontaneous views of players' songs and gute tribute to her colleagues.
A particularly hilarious example of the defender's antics came when she led the crowd in singing her own song, 'we have McCabe' on the melody of Billy Ray Cyrus 'Achy Breaky Heart'.
The 29-year-old was immediately on the crowd to start with a serenade of the match winner Blackstenius.
But McCabe's most memorable contribution – especially to the parents with small children in the crowd – came when she grabbed Beth Mead's microphone as' we are the champions and ticker tape while the trophy was shown to the mounted masses.
Warning: Explicit language
McCabe saw the moment as an opportunity to put the boot in the local rivals of the Gunners Tottenham, whose men's team claimed the second European competition last week.
“What do we think of Tottenham?” McCabe asked about the crowd and led the famous singing. 'S ***!' Was the answer before the satisfactory call and the answer continued with the question: “What do we think of S ***?”
Mead was eventually able to struggle the microphone back from her colleague when the song ended.
In another example of the exuberant state of the Ireland star, she greeted her captain and 'Scottish queen' Kim Little, who she laballed an 'professional' and – more interesting – an 'F *** ing legend'.
“She is the Scottish queen. She is what it means to be a leader of this fantastic football club, “McCabe shone. “What she does day in day out, what she does behind the scenes, she is a professional and absence of the legend of this football club.”
A definitely more composed McCabe told the Irish Independent on Saturday evening: 'We suffered together. Barcelona threw everything at us, but we fought together and we got there.
“We deserved to be in this final. We bounced back in the knockout phase of the competition and we had to be resilient.
'When I first came to the club, I was a young, naive child who came from Dublin. Here are now just an incredible feeling.
“This was today for our fans. We are all European champions. It's great. '
True to the form, McCabe had to apologize for dropping a swear word in her emotional interview after the game.
The victory over Barcelona led to jubilant parties on the full -time whistle, with many of Arsenal's stars that place images on social media to mark the triumph.
Forward Chloe Kelly posted two clips on her Instagram storage page in which she showed her movements on the dance floor while she was wearing an arsenal shirt decorated with the expression 'Champions 2025'.
Popstar Jess Glynne, whose hits are earlier and hold my hand, also set up a special post-match version for the Arsenal players.
Further scenes of the After-Party were posted by Kelly's teammate Alessia Russo, who was recently mentioned as the FWA football player of the year.
Glynne, 35, currently has a relationship with the former Arsenal star and Pundit Alex Scott, who scored a 91st minute winner to win Arsenal the UEFA Cup final in 2007.
Glynne and Scott have a relationship with each other since 2023, where the singer was raised an avid Arsenal fan in the Noord -Londs district of Muswell Hill.
Arsenal Captain Little said that their Champions League triumph would be 'in history as one of the best moments this club has ever had'.
Little, 34, who came to the club a year after their last European success in 2007, said: 'It's very special for me. I have clearly been to the club for a long time and we have had incredible periods in which we have been successful.
“To still be in the club after that long period (since 2007), and to see how much has been invested in the women's game and in the US as players, it is very special to sit here from winning the ultimate trophy for a football club and it is definitely the best moment of my career.”
