Argentina's World Cup-winning bus parade in Buenos Aires has been abandoned due to security concerns. Lionel Messi guided his nation to a famous triumph in Qatar in one of the competition's greatest finals against France, but their celebrations with fans had to be cut short.
A crazy 3-3 draw in 120 minutes against the French saw the game go to penalties, with Gonzalo Montiel converting the decisive penalty to crown Argentina as the new world champions.
Messi had earlier calmly slotted his penalty home in the shoot-out and it was from 12 yards that he gave Argentina the lead after Angel Di Maria was felled by Ousmane Dembele. Di Maria then doubled his nation's lead in the 36th minute converting Alexis Mac Allister's pass.
