All of UEFA's perspex balls of destiny have been drawn from their respective goldfish bowls of
fate and, as a result, the groups for the 2011/12 Champions League look like this...
Group A: Bayern Munich, Villarreal, Manchester City, Napoli
Group B: Inter Milan, CSKA Moscow, Lille, Trabzonspor
Group C: Manchester United, Benfica, Basel, Otelul Galati
Group D: Real Madrid, Lyon, Ajax, Dinamo Zagreb
Group E: Chelsea, Valencia, Bayer Leverkusen, Genk
Group F: Arsenal, Marseille, Olympiakos, Borussia Dortmund
Group G: Porto, Shakhtar Donetsk, Zenit St Petersburg, APOEL
Group H: Barcelona, AC Milan, BATE Borisov, Viktoria Plzen
Well, Man City's draw could have been a lot worse with Barcelona, AC Milan and Dortmund being
the toughest possible permutation but it's not as though the balls have been especially kind to
them Bayern Munich are seasoned heavyweights whereas both Villarreal and Napoli are not to be
underestimated.
