FANS have been left baffled by Olga Carmona's goal celebration in the Women's World Cup final.

The Spain star lifted up her shirt to reveal a message after scoring against England on Sunday.


Carmona's low driven strike beat Mary Earps and nestled in the bottom corner to give Spain the lead.

After scoring, she lifted up her shirt to reveal a message underneath but fans were left confused as to what it said.

Reacting on social media, one fan wrote: "Seriously, can anyone read Carmona's shirt?"

Another added: "Someone who speaks Spanish tell me what word this is on Carmona's shirt."

A third also tweeted: "I am more curious what is written on Carmona's shirt."

Meanwhile, one more commented: "Can someone PLEASE tell me what is written on Olga Carmona’s shirt! My curiosity is killing meeeeee."

Fans were soon able to decipher that Carmona's undershirt had "Merchi" written on it.

The message is an apparent message to her old school, Colegio Mercedes.
