Ribery sleeps with Champions League trophy
It got a bit crowded in Franck Ribery's bed on Sunday night, after Bayern Munich lifted the Champions League following their victory over Borussia Dortmund.
The France international and his wife were joined by an unlikely bedfellow after celebrating into the early hours.
"I was up until five or six in the morning," Ribery told Sky Sports News.
"I went to bed just before six and took the trophy with me. I had the trophy and my wife in bed with me last night."

Ronaldo calls in Bale reinforcements as Neymar joins forces with Messi
Barcelona struck fear into the hearts of Real Madrid as they stole a
march on their Liga rivals by beating them to the signature of Santos
starlet Neymar.
The Brazil international had been a long-term target for both clubs, with two teams having had bids accepted by his native side, but Barca won the day and secured the much-vaunted forward.

Robben finally hits Champions League jackpot
Arjen Robben has endured his fair share of disappointment in major finals in the past.
The Dutchman has twice suffered defeat in the Champions League final with Bayern Munich, against Inter in 2010 and Chelsea in 2012.
And the forward was also on the losing side in the 2010 World Cup as the Netherlands were defeated by Spain.
But Robben finally hit the jackpot in the Champions League last night, scoring the winning goal in a 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the closing stages to finally shake off that 'loser' tag.
"It was a special feeling," Robben told reporters. "I didn't want to be remembered in my career as a loser.
"It's harsh to say but every time in second place is not what you want. It was so important to win the trophy this time. We needed to do it and we deserved to do it."
