A former Miss Croatia winner has shared a glance into her life as the World Cup's most well-known fan.
At the beginning of the soccer tournament, 30-year-old Ivana Knoll took her occupation as a model seriously by donning daring outfits during her native country's triumphant wins in Qatar.
Throughout the competition, Knoll made headlines on social media and has skyrocketed from having 780,000 followers on Instagram to boasting over 2.4 million followers within two weeks.
On Sunday (December 11), the model took to the popular social media platform to share a video of herself battling through an enormous crowd while out and about in Doha.
Check out the video below:"My usual day in Doha looks like this. Guys, you are the best!" she wrote in the caption. In the footage, Knoll is seen taking pictures with fellow football fans in her latex red and white outfit.
The ex-Miss Croatia winner was also spotted surrounded by media, also eager to speak with her about her experience in the host nation - which is known for its rules on dressing modestly.
The mobbing by a crowd comes after Knoll revealed that during Croatia's last game - when they beat Brazil in a penalty shootout - she was approached by a security guard about her choice of attire.

The influencer spoke with the German outlet Bild about the situation and claimed that the staff prevented her from taking photos with fans.
"They don't allow the fans to take photos with me or pose for photos down here on the railing. I then asked them why they were so rude," Knoll said.
In addition to this, the model had previously claimed that - even with the host nation's strict modesty rules - authorities had given her no trouble despite her skimpy clothing, per the Independent.
She also told the publication that before her encounter with security during Friday's game, her experience in the country was "great," adding: "No one has ever told me to cover up. Everyone wants photos with me, even the locals."
"Only on Twitter was there a negative reaction from a Qatari. But he probably just wanted attention," she added, referring to Mohammed Hassan Al-Jefairi, a Qatari businessman who wrote online that people only take pictures of her to "report it".
On December 6, Knoll maintained her trademark clothing style during an interview with Piers Morgan on his show: Piers Morgan Uncensored.
Appearing on the show in a tight-fitting bra in her country's colors, the beauty was asked by the 57-year-old host if she had experienced any "resistance" to her looks.
"No, to be honest. I've been very surprised, very happy, they [the Qataris] accept my clothing," she replied, adding: "Women, men, kids take pictures with me."
Morgan then told her that the country has a more "conservative" reputation, but Knoll reiterated that she hasn't had "any bad reactions" to her looks.
"When I came here, I asked the locals what the rules were and they said I could wear what I normally wear as they are making special rules for the World Cup. This is why I dress this way," she added.

Despite the online criticism, Knoll recently made a bold promise to fans that she will strip if her nation advances to the final and wins the World Cup, per Daily Star.
According to the outlet, when the model was questioned about how she would celebrate a historic victory by German media, she mischievously said: "If that happens, the flag falls…"
Well, she will most certainly be in attendance at the country's semi-final match against Argentina on December 13.
