Argentina's national team will celebrate their World Cup triumph Tuesday in Buenos Aires at the Obelisk, the monument that is the traditional epicentre of sporting celebrations, the federation said.

The Argentine government declared Tuesday would be a bank holiday so that the entire country "can express their deepest joy for the national team."

The national team, who beat France on Sunday, arrived in the country in the early hours of Tuesday on a state airline flight and was welcomed by thousand of fans outside the airport.
