Ready and waiting: Germany's supporters await the arrival of the country's World Cup stars in Berlin on Tuesday morning

 

Now that's a setting! Sun-kissed Berlin looked a picture on Tuesday morning as the team enjoyed the adulation

 

 

We're back! Philipp Lahm leads out his team of the private Boeing 747, with the steps decorated with a message 'World Cup winners 2014' and four stars

 

 

Keep hold of that! Captain Lahm grips the World Cup trophy with Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thomas Muller not far behind

 

 

Nice take: One fan raises a banner reading 'all you need is Low, we take a bow' before the likes of Thomas Muller and Manuel Neuer made their appearance

 

 

Sight to behind: Brandenburg Gate's footballing centre was beginning to fill up very early in the morning as the screen replayed highlights of the final win

 

 

And we've landed! The Germany side touched down at the airport Tegel in Berlin before making their way to greet delighted supporters

 

 

You've not nicked that, have you? A fan holds a replica World Cup aloft after getting right to the front of the queue to see his heroes

 

 

Is it a bird? Jubilant Germans clap and reach to the sky as the plane carrying the winning squad flies over the fan park before touching down

 

All smiles: One fan decks herself out in German colours for the morning's festivities

 

Pleased: Lukas Podolski (left to right), Per Mertesacker, Mesut Ozil, Ron-Robert Zieler, Jerome Boateng and Sami Khedira on stage

 

 

All smiles: Coaching staff Andreas Koepke (left to right), Low, assistant coach Hansi Flick and team manager Oliver Bierhoff

 

 

Germany fans look at a picture they've taken

 

 

Germany fans chant and cheer as their heroes arrive

 

 

One fan sits on the shoulders of another to catch a glimpse

 

Looking good, Jogi! Low takes a spot in the cockpit of the delayed flight from Rio di Janeiro with pilots, the captain and World Cup trophy

Vantage point: One fan, German flag in one hand and phone the other, sits himself on top of a Bratwurst truck to watch the action

 

Final destination: They waited patiently in party mood for the victors to arrive at the iconic Brandenburg Gate later in the morning

 

 

Time out, please: Construction workers take a little bit of a break from work as the truck passes the building they're in

 

 

Fans greet the Germany team

 

All ready to board? The players are whisked on to a team bus, that includes '2014!' to mark their achievement in South America

 

 

Give us a wave! Mesut Ozil (left to right), Ron-Robert Zieler, Erik Durm, Mats Hummels, Shkodran Mustafi and Roman Weidenfeller engage with the fans

 

 

Get the beers open! Ozil, Benedikt Hoewedes and Per Mertesacker on the truck

 

 

Having a look: Supporters watch on

 

 

Salute you, sir! Muller greets the waiting crowds at the airport alongside central midfielders Schweinsteiger and Sami Khedira

 

 

Make way! The team bus starts to leave the airport as it descended on to the sea of supporters waiting and singing

 

 

Mean Machine! The Germany side cruised through the centre of Berlin on this truck on their open top parade before taking the stage

 

 

Fans greet the truck as it slaloms through the city

 

 

On the route: Thousands of supporters lined the streets to welcome their team home after beating Argentina on Sunday

 

 

Thank you guys! This female fan holds up a message towards the camera ahead of the players' arrival at the fan mile

 

 

Rammed! The side make their way through the public ahead of the big address later in the morning

Nice picture! A man hangs out of a widow to capture Muller lift the trophy alongside Mertesacker

 

Cool: Miroslav Klose, Lahm, Lars Bender, Khedira and Toni Kroos with the cup and ball as the German team return

 

 

Having a ball: Christoph Kramer pretends to play the guitar as they entertain the huge crowd

 

 

Boy band material? Muller (right), Kramer, Durm, Kramer and Muller all get in on the guitar act

 

 

Applauds: Miroslav Klose and Jerome Boateng take in the atmosphere

 

 

Let's all do the conga: The entire Germany side and backroom staff have a jolly around the stage

 

 

The messiah: A battered and bruised Schweinsteiger gees the crowds up even further draped in a Germany flag on the edge of the platform
