Manchester City must get past Bayern Munich to reach the semi-finals.
To make matters worse, the Premier League rivals are in the same half of the draw and therefore would meet in a potential semi-final.
On the other side, Benfica face Inter Milan and AC Milan are up against Napoli – with one of those clubs guaranteed to reach the final in Istanbul on June 10.
And it did not take long for English football fans to lament the nightmare scenario.
One said: “This draw is fixed.”
Another wrote: “Tell me the Champions League draw isn’t fixed when Chelsea draw Real and City draw Bayern…”
A third added: “No way they fixed it for napoli to reach the final lmao.”
And a final user commented: “Really just had to stack one half of the draw like that.”
