LIONEL MESSI’S wife Antonella Roccuzzo joined the rest of Argentina’s WAGS for one last World Cup celebration over the weekend.
Argentina beat France 4-2 on penalties after a thrilling 3-3 draw in December to be crowned world champions for the first time since 1986.

Thursday was the first time that the South American nation had actually taken to the pitch since their World Cup win and the scenes were incredible at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires.
As the Argentine national anthem rang out from the 80,000-plus crowd, fireworks soon began to light up the sky.
The whole place was then rocking as Lionel Messi and Cristian Romero stood there trying to take it all in.
But it all proved a little too much for Villa stopper Emi Martinez.
He was spotted welling up as the supporters showed their appreciation prior to kick-off during the anthem.
Despite the waterworks, Martinez did go on to keep a clean sheet as Argentina capped the night off with a victory over Panama in their friendly thanks to Thiago Almada and Messi.
A special ceremony was then held after the game where each player received a replica World Cup trophy to lift on the pitch as their WAGS joined them out on the pitch – with Martinez’s partner, Mandinha, even copying his controversial celebration from Qatar.
However, despite the players then returning to their training HQ to prepare for tomorrow night’s friendly with Curacao, it seems the party continued for the girls.
Muri Lopez Benitez, the partner of Argentina and Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez, has now shared a snap of the squad of WAGS posing in what appears to be a nightclub.
And Antonella, who looked dazzling in a tiny revealing dress second from the left in the shot, was undoubtedly stealing the show just like her man has done countless times out on the pitch.
Muri Lopez wrote alongside the photo: “Happy to live it with this quality of women.”
Meanwhile, amongst the celebration videos that emerged from the party last week, one showed Messi and his teammates singing songs about their World Cup final opponents, France.
The team could be heard singing: “a minute of silence for… France, they are dead”.
This isn’t the first time that the team have made a jibe towards the French squad with goalie Martinez making similar remarks about Kylian Mbappe immediately after their win in Qatar.
The Villa shot-stopper asked for a minute’s silence for Mbappe back then too, following their dramatic penalty shoot-out win.
