Champions League
“Death draw”: Salzburg opponents hit hard
The Champions League draw took place in Monaco on Thursday evening - and Paris Saint-Germain were hit hard. In France, people are talking about a "death draw" for the top club.
PSG were drawn against English giants Manchester City and Germany's record champions Bayern Munich in Pot 1. There were also prominent names from pot 2: Atletico Madrid and FC Arsenal - probably two of the most difficult opponents.
PSV Eindhoven and Austria's runners-up Red Bull Salzburg followed from pot 3. Incidentally, the Bulls have home advantage in their clash with Paris. The other PSG opponents: Girona and VfB Stuttgart. This means that France's top club has probably been hit the hardest.
"Scary gala program"
"PSG are expecting an absolutely gala program - which is also a bit scary," writes "L'Equipe". "RMC Sport" even says: "A death draw and an unreal list of shocks for PSG."
Two legends as lottery fairies
In any case, two soccer stars were to blame: Italy's goalkeeping legend Gianni Buffon and superstar Cristiano Ronaldo took part as lottery fairies in the principality. CR7" didn't have to do much, as an AI-controlled mechanism essentially allocated the opponents at the touch of a button.
