Lionel Messi was forced to cover his Argentina shirt with a black and gold robe as he lifted the World Cup trophy in Qatar.
Messi was the hero as he scored twice and converted his penalty in a dramatic shoot-out win over France after a 3-3 draw at the Lusail Stadium. It marked a dream end to his World Cup career as he added the only major honour missing from his CV in historic scenes in Qatar.
But, as Messi finally made his way up to the stage to collect the trophy, he was given a black robe by the Emir of Qatar. He put on the item of clothing as BBC commentator Guy Mowbray declared it "the night the true king of football is coronated".
