Thousands of people celebrated in Buenos Aires on Monday morning after Lionel Messi's Argentina team was crowned champion of the Copa America with a 1-0 victory over Colombia in an electrifying final that was decided in extra time.

Cheering fans, many wrapped in Argentine flags, partied around the city's iconic Obelisk in the early hours of the morning despite the low temperatures of the southern hemisphere winter.

The party ended abruptly after more than four hours when police deployed water trucks and officers to clear the streets, causing a rush of people.

Some hurled stones at the police but many quickly dispersed in the face of advancing riot police. The authorities reported no arrests or injuries.  "We are champions of America, let's enjoy this precious moment that is unique for us since we have the chance to celebrate with the greatest who is ...Messi and the farewell of 'Fideo' (Angel) Di Maria," a chanting Pablo Inigo told AFP.
