It is a historic evening that is taking place on Thursday in Monaco. For the first time ever, the draw for the new format of the Champions League is taking place – with 36 instead of 32 teams.
Also taking part is YB, who will face Barça, Inter, Atalanta, Red Star, Shakhtar, Stuttgart, Celtic and Aston Villa. Cristiano Ronaldo will be among those playing as the lucky charm.

The 39-year-old, however, has a very simple task. Every time goalie legend Gigi Buffon draws a team, Ronaldo has to press a button. A supercomputer then spits out the opponents of the drawn team.

Of course, the name Messi cannot be left out… 
Ronaldo probably doesn’t care about the comments.
On Instagram, some fans are making fun of the “idiot job”. One writes ironically: “Damn, he even practiced for this – what a role model.” Another mocks: “Press the button if you think Messi is the greatest of all time.”
But it’s not just Ronaldo’s task that’s causing a stir, but also his outfit. Some viewers are particularly surprised by the sparkling ring on his left ear. Users on X think it looks like a Coke can cap.

Ronaldo himself probably couldn’t care less about the comments. A few hours after the draw, his girlfriend Georgina posted pictures of him and his new trophy on Instagram. The model wrote: “You deserve the best in the world, my love. We love you.”

The 39-year-old Portuguese has been doing extremely well recently. He has been on the scoresheet in each of the last four games with Al-Nassr. In the next game in two weeks, his club will face Al-Ahli.
