Good manners! Superstar David Beckham, why online war with Minnesota?Furious at Minnesota's provocation as Miami owner
"Keep manners."

Legendary soccer star David Beckham (50) made headlines by waging an `online war' with Minnesota United of the U.S. Major League Baseball (MLS).

Minnesota, which won the recent MLS game against Inter Miami, which it owns, was angry when it posted a mocking post on its official SNS (social network service).




According to the BBC and other foreign media on the 13th (Korea time), Beckham was displeased with the message celebrating the victory over Miami on the Minnesota club's Instagram and said, `Keep manners toward the other team.'

Minnesota won a 4-1 victory over Miami in the 12th round of MLS at Allianz Field in its home stadium on the 11th. After leading 2-0 in the first half, Miami's star Lionel Messi allowed a chase goal, but it was a game in which he responded with consecutive goals. In particular, Minnesota is a team that Jung Sang-bin (23), a 23-year-old national team player who played for Suwon Samsung in the K-League, has played since 2023, and Jung Sang-bin played as a substitute in the second half of the game.

It was a significant win for Minnesota. This is because Messi, the current top star, has erased his performance and avenged his 1-2 defeat in June 2022. The two teams' all-time showdowns have become one win and one loss.

In response, the Minnesota club stimulated Miami through its official Instagram. In the pictures of the cheering players, the rankings of Miami with 21 points (6th place) and Minnesota with 22 points (5th place) were edited and attached. MLS is divided into the Eastern and Western Conferences, with Miami in the East and Minnesota in the West. Currently, Miami ranks fourth in the league in the East and Minnesota ranks second in the league, but the rankings that combine the two conferences are divided into 5th and 6th. Attached is a consolidated ranking compilation to highlight Minnesota's lead over Miami.

Miami added a message titled `Pink Phony Club" to the 67th Grammy Awards ceremony held this year, titled by famous singer Chapelon, who won the Best New Artist Award. 'Pink Phony Club' is a Grammy Award-nominated popular song for six categories. Just in time, Minnesota's iconic color is pink, which seems to have linked Chapelon's 'best' image.

Minnesota's `provocation' did not stop there. Supporters posted an additional photo of a large hanger with the phrase 'History Over Hype Culture Over Cash (History Over Advertising, Tradition Over Money)' unfolded from the stands during the game. It was enough to give the impression that Miami is mocking the fact that it is attracting attention by recruiting a large number of world stars such as Messi, Luis Suarez, and Sergio Busquets with a lot of money.




It seems that it was a message that Beckham, the owner of the team, could not let go of. Beckham rushed to the post's comment section and expressed displeasure, saying, `Show a little respect, be elegant in victory.' He also responded to a photograph of the phrase 'History Over High Type Culture Over Cash' saying "Respect over everything".

As Beckham stepped out, Miami fans also flocked to Minnesota SNS to protest, intensifying the debate between the two teams.
