Lionel Messi led Argentina’s World Cup celebrations with the Player of the Tournament dancing on a changing room table to footage recorded by Sergio Agüero.

The 35-year-old led his side to World Cup glory after an incredible final that saw Argentina beat France on penalties.

The World Cup was the only trophy to leave Messi’s collection and it seems the PSG striker couldn’t be happier to add it to his collection.

Messi bounced up and down with the trophy before his teammates joined him on the table

After sitting down on the table, Messi was joined by his teammate Lautaro Martinez who jumped up to dance with the World Cup trophy.

The rest of the dressing room gathered around their captain and kept on singing with the World Cup trophy the center of everyone’s attention.

The former Barcelona star then celebrated with the $10 million check Argentina received after winning the final.

The chanting fell silent as Messi was handed the check, but when it was handed to Argentina’s number 10, normal service resumed and the champions’ chants resumed.

After Messi finished dancing on tables and with checks, the party turned a little more unorthodox.

It was a brilliant World Cup final and one of the Argentinian staffers decided there was no better way to celebrate than a somersault in a bin.

Cheered on by his peers as if he were doing the long jump at the Olympics, he threw himself headfirst into the box.

They got a lot of height on the jump and dived straight into the box with perfect form.

After stepping out of the bin, the now gymnast was greeted with lots of cheers and lots of alcohol as they lifted off the floor.

When they came out of the bin, they were soaked by the rest of the team watching

While the festivities were going on, Aguero also took time to mock French youngster Eduardo Camavinga.

While partying in an Argentinian kit, Agüero, despite having retired from football, decided to dedicate a drink to the Real Madrid man – also calling him evil.

The festivities will continue well into the night for Argentine players and fans as they finally get to celebrate their third World Cup trophy.
