The European Football Association (UEFA) decided today, Monday, to hold the draw for the final price of the European Football Championship again, after a technical error in the program that guides officials about the teams that can or cannot be combined.

"After a technical problem occurred in the program provided by an external service provider that advises officials on which teams may or may not be combined, a significant error occurred in the draw for the Champions League round of 16," UEFA said in a statement.

"As a result, the result of the previous lottery has been cancelled and will be replayed in full at 1500 CET," he added.

The canceled draw had resulted in a confrontation between Manchester United, its rival, Paris Saint-Germain, in the final price, in an expected match between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the highest club competition in Europe.

Messi, who joined Saint-Germain before the start of the season, struggled to adapt to the French league, but scored 5 goals in the Champions League, while Ronaldo, the historical top scorer in the Champions League with 140 goals, scored 6 goals this season.

The last time that United and Saint-Germain met in the final price round, the Premier League club adjusted its backlog to advance in the tournament.

It also resulted in Bayern Munich, the six-time European champion, facing a risky confrontation with Atletico Madrid.

And facing Liverpool - led by coach Jurgen Klopp - Salzburg, which became the first Austrian team to qualify for the knockout stage.

Chelsea, the defending champion, would face French champions Lille, while Real Madrid - a record 13-time champion - will play with Benfica.

While Manchester City was with Villarreal after a mistake in the draw that initially landed the Spanish team with its opponent in Group F, United.

Teams that play in the same group cannot meet each other in the knockout stage.
