Argentines descended on the capital of Buenos Aires, completely shutting down the highways.
The crowd stretched for miles.
Every street surrounding the center of the city was jammed with fans.
This photo from above the Obelisco de Buenos Aires doesn't look real.
The fans stood where they could to get a glimpse of the team and celebrate the win.
Some even climbed for a better view.
Or found a roof to sit on.
Of course, the biggest crowd could be found around the team bus which struggled to navigate the crowd.
Everybody wanted a photo and to wave at the players.
Lionel Messi can be seen here in the middle wearing a blue and white shirt at the back of the bus.
A celebration indeed.
