Hilarious moment two blokes catch eyeful of ‘World Cup’s hottest fan’ and snap pictures as she strolls past in stadium
FEISTY football fan Ivana Knoll, former Miss Croatia, has been poking fun at a group of men who were caught sneaking photos of the model's daring fashion.
The 30-year-old German-born model and designer has been pictured cheering on Croatia at this winter's tournament wearing a range of revealing outfits, earning her the name of "World Cup's hottest fan".
In her most recent Instagram post celebrating 1million followers, she included a photo of the men checking her out and snapping photos with the caption: "1000000 followers, thank you so much for your support. Love you all!"
Her followers were quick to point out the cheeky actions of the men in the photos.
"That's it, the guy is caught. The wife is waiting at home with a hammer!" one follower commented.
It's not the first time Ivana has turned heads with her showy outfits - she's made headlines in years prior for her sexy outfits.

She gained fame in 2018 for her fashion at the event in Russia.
Others were critical of her cheeky outfit in the conservative country of Qatar.
"Qatar is not Europe, you shouldn't go out in this form," one user said.
Ivana pointed out the hypocrisy in the organiser's decisions regarding modesty, mentioning her Catholicism.

"I'm not a Muslim and if we in Europe respect hijab and niqab, I think they need also to respect our way of life, our religion and in the end me wearing dresses and bikinis because I'm Catholic from Croatia who is here because of the World Cup," she explained.
Her latest outfit, a red checked bikini top and tight red leggings, turned some heads, especially as Qatar has enforced strict rules around clothing for the World Cup.
Visitors to Qatar have been advised to cover their shoulders and avoid short skirts, which Ivana was shocked by.
"First I was thinking if the World Cup is happening there (Qatar), for sure they will allow us everything to make it comfortable for all fans without any of the restrictions," she said.
Ivana has said she has no fear of being arrested by Qatari authorities, and even dared to wear a skimpy thong swimsuit on a Qatar beach before the competition began.
Ivana's team, Croatia, is set to play Japan this Monday.
