Just less than an hour ago, the UEFA confirmed that due to some technical problems they will be redoing the Champions League last-16 draw. Apparently, system failed to include Man Utd's ball in the options to face Atlético de Madrid during the first draw.

As such, they have confirmed on their Twitter what happened:

 

As result of this, the draw has been declared void, and will be entirely redone at 15:00 CET.

Any thoughts on this? There's a lot of talking for years that the UEFA's draws are a fraud (although I don't really think so), and after this 'fail' many people will be mad when the new draw is redone.

Kind of crazy to think that something like this even happened. The worst thing about this is that if it wasn't televised, I'm sure they would have got away with it and not even bothered to redraw it.

Not too many complaint from me though. As a Chelsea fan, we're pretty happy with getting Lille both times :D
