UEFA deny fixed league draw!
Posted on March 25, 2008 Filed Under Headlines
William Gaillard, advisor to UEFA president Michel Platini, described as a ‘ridiculous story’ claims that the Champions League draw was fixed saying ‘cheating is impossible’.
Gaillard said: “It’s a joke, a ridiculous story. What’s so impressive about some predicting these matches on an English internet site. There are only four matches. It would have been more impressive had he predicted the Champions League groups which have 32 teams.”
Gaillard added the warning of the balls in the draw was impossible. “If we heated the plastic balls, they would melt. We take them out 10 minutes before the draw during which time they would have cooled down. Any cheating is impossible.”
