And one blonde woman left nothing to the imagination as she celebrated with her top off.

Glam footie fans risk being slapped with huge fines - or even put behind bars if they flash their figures in Qatar.

Although non-Qatari women don't need to wear the abaya - the long, black robe - their tops must cover their midriff and shoulders, and skirts, dresses and trousers must cover the knees.

Women travelling in to the Arab nation are also banned from wearing any tight clothing, or flashing any cleavage.

And WAGs were advised to wear a scarf around their necks in a bid to cover up their busts.

Fans were quick to take to social media to point out the topless woman risked arrest due to the nation's very strict conservative laws.

One fan said: "I spotted her, very brave! she’ll be arrested over there if she’s not careful…"

A second added: "Caught live on TV".

A third commented: "I'd be posting my boobs later to celebrate Messi and Argentina World Cup."

The World Cup's "hottest fan", former Miss Croatia Ivana Knoll, has previously flouted strict rules as she appeared at games in skimpy outfits.

The game was hailed as one of the best World Cup finals ever after Argentina overcame the French 4-2 on penalties following a 3-3 thriller.

The South Americans started the better side as Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria scored in the first half.

France and Kylian Mbappe hit back in the second half as the PSG forward netted a crucial brace to send the game to extra time.

Messi and Mbappe directed fist-pumps at each other after their respective goals.

The Argentine captain had thought he had won the game in extra time before Mbappe had one more chance from the spot after Montiel handled the ball in the box.

Jubilant Argentina fans went wild today as the country celebrated its first World Cup win for 36 years.

Thousands poured into the streets of Buenos Aires to watch Argentina take the trophy after a nerve-shredding final.

Joyous footage showed thousands of euphoric fans leaping into the air and waving flags.

After the astonishing game, Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez said: "There could not have been a World Cup that I have dreamed of like this. I was calm during the penalties."

For Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni it was a nail-biting finish to a turbulent tournament and he could not hold back his tears following the final whistle.

"I cannot believe that we have suffered so much in a perfect game. Unbelievable, but this team responds to everything," Scaloni said.

"I am proud of the work they did. It is an exciting group. With the blows we received today, with the draws, this makes you emotional. I want to tell people to enjoy, it's a historic moment for our country."

It was the third world title for Argentina and the first since the late Diego Maradona won the trophy almost single-handedly in 1986.

For Argentina players and captain Messi, who netted twice in the 120 minutes before also scoring in the shoot-out, it was the biggest title of their careers.

Messi's Argentine team had made the final as recently as 2014 but on that occasion they finished second best to Germany.

"I'll never forget it. We had to suffer but we deserved to win," Argentina defender Rodrigo De Paul said.

"We've beaten the last champions, it's a joy I cannot put into words.
