This past Tuesday armed a big stir in Madrid after the image published by the UEFA in his web page and social networks, informing on the distinct schedules of the draw of the phase of groups of the Champions League 2016-17 in function of the country.

Like points of reference for each country, the UEFA situated in the map the capitals or cities more important of the territory in question, planting just below the respective hour to which will celebrate the draw. It called the attention, in the case of Spain, that the city futbolística of reference was Barcelona and no Madrid, in spite of being the capital and that in two of the three last editions of the Champions League so much Real Madrid as Athletic have arrived to the final of the tournament.

The case is that this Wednesday the UEFA has rectified and the gone back to launch the same image in his web and social networks, only that changing the name of Barcelona by Madrid, surely because of the pressures received from the Madrilenian press.

Barcelona appeared the Tuesday beside London, Berlin, Moscow, Remove, Bogota, Buenos Aires, Tokyo and others of the big capitals of the international panorama, but Madrid had remained relegada to a secondary appearance. It would be because in addition to having a glorious team of football, Barcelona is a more European city and cosmopolita that Madrid? It can that yes, can that no.

What is sure is that the rectification of the UEFA has not arrived of casualidad, but it has been forzosa. This Thursday 25 August will celebrate , to the 18.00 hours (Spanish hour), the draw of the phase of groups of the UEFA Champions League 2016-17 in the Forum Grimaldi of Monaco.

But, independently of what suceda, the controversy already has desatado a lot before, with a map of schedules that did not seat at all well in some sectors of the "cavern mediática", and that now has had to be retouched of form forced.
