Looks like there's just no winning this time for David Beckham.
The Watch Climax OnlineEnglish football star probably lost a bunch of Chinese fans after a post in which he referred to Hong Kong as China.
SEE ALSO: The personal data of all of Hong Kong's 3.7 million registered voters have been stolenBeckham posted a video of Hong Kong on Instagram and Facebook, saying he had a "great 48 hours in China" -- something netizens quickly picked up on.
It's a touchy subject for many in Hong Kong, which was handed back to China in 1997 after over a century of British rule. Plenty of Hong Kongers still see the island as largely independent from the mainland.
After some initial backlash, Beckham then tried to rectify the situation by changing his post to say: "Great 48 hours in Shanghai and Hong Kong."
Unfortunately, this provoked anger from a whole other group of netizens, that saw his statement as anti-Chinese.

His social media faux pas comes as a new wave of crackdowns on pro-democracy activists sweep Hong Kong. And with the recent election of a new chief executive that is said to be pro-Beijing, many believe that the Chinese government is tightening its grip on Hong Kong -- an issue that has caused increasing tension between the two regions.
