Liverpool fans partied into the night on the streets of Paris ahead of the Champions League final.
Around 60,000 Liverpool fans are expected in the French capital this weekend as Jurgen Klopp's side take on 13- time winners Real Madrid at the Stade de France.
Supporters began to arrive on Thursday morning and by Friday, Paris had turned into a sea of red with fans even taking over the Eiffel Tower.

Fans filmed themselves packed outside L'Avenue restaurant as they belted out their favourite chants long into the night.
One supporter who had travelled from Southport to watch the final said there was a 'huge police presence' in the area as riot police kept a 'watchful eye' on the fans.
Matthew Walsh, 31, said: "We stayed down the street outside L'Avenue belting out the Diogo Jota song. It was fantastic. There was a huge police presence but no trouble whatsoever.
"Everyone was just having a great time and hopefully it's the same again today. The riot police were sound and a few of them every took videos of us. They were making sure the traffic could get through as well."
People in Liverpool shirts and holding banners and waving flags could be seen across the city.
French police have warned that wearing any football club colours is banned near the Champs Elysees.
The restriction covers the popular tourist attraction area from the Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe.
Merseyside Police’s Liverpool FC Twitter account said: “As of 15.00 on 26.05 until 18.00 on Sunday 29.05 it is prohibited to wear any football club colours in the area of the Champs Elysees.
“This includes scarves, hats, displaying banners etc. The police can issue a 135 Euro fine.”
However, supporters were still seen with Liverpool shirts and memorabilia and officers did not appear to be stopping them.
Banners seen around the city read “up the Reds” and “Conquering Europe”.
Police vans were lined up close to Gare du Nord train station where the Eurostar from London arrive, with armed officers patrolling the area.
Liverpool are hoping to lift the trophy for the seventh time on Saturday after last winning the competition in Madrid in 2019.
