On the evening of December 13, Beijing time, the latest news from a number of foreign media, because of the two low-level mistakes made in the lottery process, the Champions League 1/8 final draw, or will be re-conducted.
In the first round of the Champions League knockout draw at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, there were two low-level mistakes. The first mistake was when drawing out the second round of the group, after first drawing villarreal, Huang Qian could only meet one of the six teams of Manchester City, Lille, Liverpool, Juve, Bayern and Ajax. Draw guest Arshavin, however, drew from Manchester United, who was supposed to be avoiding his group. UEFA then re-drew the draw and drew Manchester City.
In the third round of the subsequent draw against Atletico, the UEFA secretary-general did not count potential opponents Manchester United in it, and did not put the ball representing the Red Devils into the draw pool. Because Manchester United and Atletico are not in the same group, Liverpool and Atletico are in the same group, this mistake caused Manchester United to be unable to draw with Atletico.
As a result, Atletico were drawn to the powerful Bayern. Manchester United, on the other hand, had no choice but to face Ligue 1 supremacy Paris Saint-Germain. According to foreign media reports, UEFA is investigating the mistakes in the lottery process and considering re-drawing. Espnon reporter Rodrigo Fáez's latest news, UEFA has come close to agreeing to re-draw the lottery! There are a lot of teams complaining now due to mistakes in the draw, so re-drawing is a viable option.
In this Champions League round of 16 draw, Manchester United became the worst of the four Premier League teams, they drew The Greater Paris led by Messi, Mbappe and Neymar, whether they can advance to the quarter-finals is grim. Considering that there are two superstars in the two teams, Messi and C Ronaldo, respectively, this has to make people suspect that UEFA is suspected of "signing" to create a topic.
