Real Madrid's official account recently generated controversy over inappropriate phrasing involving Tibet, and the relevant post was deleted on September 3.

On August 30, Real Madrid held a minute of silence before the match at the Bernabéu. Afterwards, its official account posted a photo of the venue with the caption: "Minute of silence at the Bernabéu for the victims of flooding in Nepal and Tibet."

This phrasing, which presented Tibet separately from China, quickly drew criticism from Chinese media and fans. Tibet is an inalienable part of China's territory. Many social media users pointed out that Real Madrid, as a world-renowned club, should use precise terminology on matters concerning China's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

On September 3, the post had been deleted and the original link displayed "page not found."
