FOOTBALL fans were bemused by a Chelsea post cheering on Spain's Marc Cucurella ahead of the Euro 2024 final.
Blues left-back Cucurella, 25, played an integral part in Luis de la Fuente's men lifting the trophy in Berlin on Sunday night as they claimed a 2-1 win over England.
Chelsea duo Cole Palmer and Conor Gallagher were a part of Gareth Southgate's squad facing off against Cucurella's Spain.
And Palmer even came off the bench to equalise for England, before Mikel Oyarzabal's late winner.
Yet it appeared ahead of the game that Chelsea had put their support behind Spain with a post about Cucurella - who has struggled during his first two seasons at Stamford Bridge.
As reported by The Mirror, it read: "Next stop, Berlin. Cucu's on fire, Europe's right wingers are terrified.
"Our Spanish left-back has been a standout performer at the Euros. Tidy on the ball, combative off it.
"Up and down the left touchline, Marc's leaving everything out on the pitch.
"The Blues saw what he can do earlier this year, and now he's ready for the grand finale.
"This is your time, Marc. Best of luck."
Before Chelsea later shared similar posts about Palmer and Gallagher, the tweet left a number of fans dumbfounded as they criticised the Premier League side for supporting England's opponents.
One person said: "Fold the whole club. Meant to be an English club."
While another added: "Chelsea's social media is honestly embarrassing. Not saying that cos they're supporting Cucurella here, more the way they write their posts."
A third said: "Weird club, man. How you posting this as an English club? "
And a fourth responded: "Bigging up their £65m flop when the guy who saved them from relegation is playing for England."
Chelsea did go on to share similarly descriptive posts about Palmer and Gallagher.
The one for Palmer read: "Balling his way to Berlin. A game-changer for the Three Lions.
"The English cheer as he walks up to the touchline. Cometh the hour, cometh the man.
"With all eyes on the first kick of the shootout, the coldest man in the stadium sent the keeper the wrong way. Precision and purpose.
"The incisive pass for the winner in Dortmund, with just minutes to go. Us Blues know what he can do. This is your time, Cole. Best of luck!"
