What the f##k was that. Looked like the costume the Sea Devils used to wear against Jon Pertwee.

Thought at the time, what numpty decided to get the winning captain to don that tacky piece of rubbish.

I keep thinking about this.

What actually was it?
What did it it symbolise?
Was it valuable?
Has Messi been used in some way by wearing it during moments when the most iconic images from the tournament would be captured?

I reckon it was meant to be an Arab robe, but he and/or they didn't want his shirt covered up, so they made a see-through one. Which, as everyone has said, just looked ridiculous.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Thank you for this, GB.

I will not lose sleep for two nights running now.

The commentators should have been given this insight, for sure.

It was probably priceless - made from the silk of worms fed on liquid gold, stitched with platinum and embalmed with the blood of 3,000 itinerant workers. Def info.


Seemed fine to me at the time - it was obviously a local thing (now explained).

This is the Guardian's take on it.

"The bisht covered part of Messi’s Argentina shirt, including the national badge, during the ceremony — ensuring that iconic images of the trophy lift will remain a reminder of whose World Cup this was."

Interesting to note that Qatar Airlines airhostesses were also prominent in ceremony.

Sportswashing to the end?

Interestingly, it wasn't a proper bisht anyway because they are made from camels' hair and goats' wool, and are not see-through. Maybe that's why it looked a bit ridiculous.

Pretty sure the Prince that put it on him was wearing exactly the same thing. Looked like it in real time and doing a quick Google search makes me think so too.

Maybe it was see-through but it didn't look as see-through as Messi's and I am not sure it is traditional. Messi's was presumably see-through so as not to completely hide his football shirt, but I do think it looked a bit ridiculous, whatever the intentions.

Looked very similar.

For reference, check him out whilst he checks out some Argentinian Phallus Worship.

These non-UK customs are truly enlightening.

Still looked like a bell, and if Ronaldo had indulged in this kind of nonsense he would have (rightly) got pelters for it.

Spectacular, there should be a word for the act of pretending inanimate objects are penises, something like "knobdoppling" or some such.
