Pakistan's Mehwish Hayat, Humayun Saeed, and Sajal Ali were among the country's celebrities seen cheering for Argentina at the FIFA World Cup final, which saw the Lionel Messi-inspired team clinch their third title after beating France 4-2 on penalties on Sunday.

Argentina captain Lionel Messi scored twice and France striker Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick as a thrilling World Cup final finished 3-3 after extra time at the Lusail Stadium. However, in an extraordinary night of high drama, Argentinian substitute Gonzalo Montiel stroked home the winning spot-kick to seal an agonising shoot-out loss for defending champions France.

Messi on Sunday won the Golden Ball for the best player while Kylian Mbappe of France came second to Messi for that award but did manage to win the Golden Boot for the tournament's top scorer with eight goals.

Messi also vowed to continue playing for his country despite finally realising his lifetime ambition of winning the World Cup.

"I want to keep experiencing a few more matches as world champion," he told Argentine television following the country's epic penalty shoot-out victory over France in the World Cup final in Doha.
