On Monday noon there was a drawing of pairs 1/8 finals. Its results will not be binding, and.
Real opposed to repeat LM draw. “Our couple has been legally elected”
The cause of the serious error was a series of minor omissions. First, it was drawn that the rival of Villarreal would be Manchester United. However, such a rivalry could not take place, because both teams played with each other in a group. So they were drawn again. This time Manchester City was pulled out. Then, during the draw of the rival for Atletico, the ball was not added to Manchester United, because it was considered that the team had been drawn a moment earlier. Atletico was thus deprived of the possibility of playing with one of the rivals with which it could compete according to the rules. Ultimately, the Spanish champions went to Bayern, and Manchester United went to PSG.
Obviously, Atletico contested the draw. UEFA accepted this and announced that the draw would be repeated. According to BeinSports, the local rival of Los Rojiblancos, i.e. Real, did not agree with this decision. The royals claim that the pair Real Madrid – Benfica was drawn legally and without error, and the drawing results themselves should be repeated only from error.
At 15:00 the entire draw for the 1/8 finals of the Champions League is to be repeated. The first matches of the 1/8 final of the LM will be played on February 15/16 and February 22/23. Remarks on March 8/9 and March 15/16.
