jpnn.com, NYON - Shocking news came from Nyon, Switzerland, Monday (13/12) as the draw for the top 16 of the Champions League 2021/22 had to be repeated.

This was because in the first draw, Manchester United met Villarreal. This should not have happened because the two teams were in the same group, namely Group F.

In the second draw, Villarreal eventually met Manchester City, while Manchester United faced Paris Saint-Germain.

In a statement, the UEFA acknowledged that the system had gone wrong and that the draw for the top 16 had to be repeated.

It is planned that the draw for the 2021/22 Champions League will be held at 9 p.m. West Indonesian time.

"Following a technical problem with the software of an external service provider that instructs the officials as to which teams are eligible to play each other, a material error occurred in the draw for the UEFA Champions League round of 16," UEFA said on its website.

"As a result of this, the draw has been declared void and will be entirely redone." (uefa/mcr16/mcr20/jpnn)
