Argentina Fans Burned Coffins With Mbappe's Face On During World Cup Parade

Around 4 million Argentines turned out for the open-top bus parade through the streets of Buenos Aires, though it had to be halted for safety reasons due to some fans attempting to jump onto the bus from above.

Argentina fans are known for being uber passionate when it comes to football but some feel as though a mark was overstepped when it came to their Mbappe gesture.

A viral video shared on social media showed a group holding up a coffin which contained a cross and a picture of France's talisman.

It was set alight as fans jumped up and down and chanted. The clip was posted by Get French Football news, with the caption: "Argentinians with a lovely 24th birthday present for Kylian Mbappé here."

Mbappe scored a hat-trick in the World Cup final, the first to do so since Geoff Hurst in 1966 - and yet he still ended up on the losing side
