They are drawn from transparent pots and every ball is opened so you can see that they aren't cheating. It's pretty safe to say they aren't.

It's not like the WC draw which was hidden behind a stand and the people drawing the names seemed to be changing the papers... that was suspicious as fuck.

3 Spanish 2 English 2 German 1 Portuguese last 8 then.

Dont know where i heard it but i think they said that the balls have different temperature and they people who draw them got a special ring or something like that, not sure if we should believe it or not

The balls are there for like half an hour while the hosts chit-chat, introduce retired football players, hand out awards and show promotional videos with all the journalists in front the whole time. If they had heated any balls up, they would have cooled down by then (at least to a point where it would be very hard to notice them and tell them apart from the rest).

agreed, the uefa drawing are really solid

gotta say though that certain patterns have piled up a bit in the last few years

hmm I'm not sure about this one. Seems like they are fooling some people pretty easily

*puts tinfoil hat on*

Yup. Rigged I tell you, rigged!

It's always been like that, just that the patterns change

In the early 00s we would usually get Bayern-Madrid
In the mid 00s we would usually get OL-Madrid
A few years ago we would get Barça-Milan
Now we get Bayern-Arsenal...
