Argentina returned home to play their first match in front of their fans as World champions and defeated Panama 2-0 as beautiful scenes followed the full-time whistle.
The country won its third World Cup back in December beating France in Qatar as the game’s greatest-ever player, Lionel Messi, eventually got his hands on the sport’s biggest prize.
Speaking to the Argentina fans on the pitch after the game, the Argentina captain said to TyC: “I always dreamed of this moment and to celebrate with you. With my country, Argentina. I don’t want to forget all the teammates I had before because we also did everything possible to get it. Let’s enjoy the third star.”
Then the beautiful celebrations began and some of the scenes can be seen below.
