Czech hockey team celebrate victory with thousands of fans in Old Town Square

The Czech hockey team were greeted by thousands of jubilant fans in Prague's Old Town Square on Monday evening to celebrate their victory over Switzerland in the Ice Hockey World Championship final on Sunday. The entire team, headed by captain Roman Červenka, got up on stage while the crowd sang along to the Czech national anthem and We Are the Champions by Queen. The celebrations continued until the evening, but the police and paramedics only had to deal with a few minor isolated incidents.
