Fans blast Champions League as ‘rigged’ as Ronaldo vs Messi awaits in PSG vs Man Utd
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will face off with each other again in the Champions League as Manchester United drew PSG for the Last 16, but some fans were quick to call the draw rigged
Football fans have blasted UEFA's 'rigged' Champions League draw as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are set to face off next year.
Manchester United drew PSG on Monday morning as the Last 16 of Europe's premier competition found out their knockout ties.
The Red Devils' clash with the Parisians was seen as the tie of the round as two of footballs finest attractions will square off.
But some fans have been left fuming at the draw, as some United fans claimed the draw was rigged to boost TV viewership.
The Red Devils faithful took to Twitter to fume at the tie.
"UEFA rigged a Man City vs PSG group when they heard the Ronaldo rumours, but that never happened, so they rigged Man United vs PSG in the knockouts instead," one fan fumed.
Another added: "So obviously rigged if we get PSG. Ronaldo vs Messi b******."
"This is so f***** rigged by UEFA. Such an obvious fix," a third fumed.
And a fourth added: "No surprises PSG and Manchester United face each other. Ronaldo VS Messi, as if UEFA were ever going to miss out on that game with the money they’ll bring in."
There was added controversy to the draw as United's ball appeared not to be put into the pot when Atletico Madrid were drawn.
Elsewhere in the draw, Manchester City drew Villarreal, while Chelsea are set to face French champions Lille.
