As the Germany players celebrated their World Cup victory, their WAGs could not resist joining the on-field party at the Maracana. A host of wives and girlfriends took to the pitch in Rio de Janeiro to congratulate their partners after they came out on top in the biggest, most important match of their lives. Andre Schurrle was certainly glad of the presence of girlfriend Montana Yorke as he wept into her arms. He later said: 'This is the best moment of my life. I had to cry because I was so overcome. I couldn't stop it.' VIDEO Scroll down to watch Germany players singing 'championes' arriving back at hotel
