The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League will be “entirely redone” following a “technical problem”, UEFA has said.
It comes after a mistake involving Spanish giants Atletico Madrid and English sides Liverpool and Manchester United, regarding who the teams were eligible to be drawn against.
UEFA said: “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.
“As a result of this, the draw has been declared void and will be entirely redone at 1500 CET (2pm UK time).”
