1. FC Köln returns to the Bundesliga as second division champions. The party mode has, of course, been activated for quite some time. A pitch invasion at the final whistle is almost standard at the end of the season.

Friedhelm Funkel celebrated his seventh promotion. Beer showers were the very least he could expect.

The championship trophy was hoisted into the Cologne afternoon sky just a few minutes later.

FC key player Linton Maina had saved another mood booster for this moment of ecstasy.

In Cologne tonight, if we are to believe the words of Mark Uth, the night will be turned into day.

The party continued in the locker room for the "World Champions from the Rhine".
