UEFA bungles Champions League draw
On the heels of broadcast issues in The Ashes and controversy reigning at the finish of Formula 1's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, UEFA have had their own embarrassing bungle by mistakenly placing Manchester United's name into the wrong pot of the Champions League draw.
However, United had initially been paired with Villarreal even though the English club's name should not have been in that pot since the two advanced from the same group. "As a result of this, the draw has been declared void," UEFA said in a statement published 90 minutes after the draw was done. United's name was then not put in the pot as a potential opponent for Atlético Madrid in the subsequent pairing, which saw Bayern Munich picked out.
