Champions League futbol

Anyone else feel like UEFA will fix the semi final draw to avoid having an all Spanish final?

I'm betting that the draw is Athletico vs Real and Man City vs Munich

Geez, it's not like FIFA and UEFA have any corruption in their souls, right?

As a footnote, I worked for FIFA until the day the FBI came and handcuffed my boss's boss. "I've had it with the corruption," I said. And the next day a friend got me an interview with UEFA... Billions and billions of dollars (or francs or pounds or euros) equals scads and scads and scads and scads and scads and scads of corruption. On the plus side, I got to be anywhere in any football stadium in the world I wanted to be at any time. On the minus side, the FBI comes...

Of course, by the time you posted that reply, the draw had already been made and the all-Madrid final has most definitely NOT been avoided by UEFA. I don't particularly see what the point would have been considering the same final occurred a couple of years ago, much as an all-English one did in 2008.

Just FYI, my post was in jest. I think its too easy to blame corruption and fixing for just about any draw.

One of my favourite Champions League Finals as it happens.
