Real Madrid has ruled out appealing to the European Court of Sport (TAS) and asking for the Champions League draw to be repeated based on the UEFA error, after his cross with Benfica. The Spanish club notified by letter, prior to the complete repetition of the draw, that it was “inadmissible” and that it constituted an “obvious, evident and flagrant adulteration”. But UEFA ignored it, repeated the process and the rival assigned to Madrid ultimately was PSG of Messi, Neymar and Mbappé. After that resolution, Real Madrid has assumed the crossing and sources of the maximum solvency of the club have told this newspaper that “Real Madrid will face PSG with total confidence in the team and with all the illusion of getting through the tie against such a great rival and being in the quarter-final draw. “
In a tough letter sent by Real Madrid to UEFA after confirming this body the total repetition of the draw, the Spanish club recalled that the ruling is only attributable to the organizer and not to the participating clubs. But once the draw is repeated, Madrid considers that “you have to play the tie” and it is not possible to appeal to TAS, just try to be better than PSG and move on in the European Cup. “
On the other hand, UEFA and Madrid are litigating in the European courts, specifically in the Supreme Court of Luxembourg, for the Super League. Initially, UEFA threatened to expel the Spanish club for being one of the promoters of the new tournament, but could not do so because it was prohibited by law. Despite all this, the club assumes the repetition of the draw and will not present more resources or ask for it to be repeated again.
