real madrid pretty much always gets an easy opponent

You know, there was a myth about Real Madrid in the 50's and 60's because of that.

Back then there was one guy from the Real Madrid who was also a EUFA executive that took part on the draws,and they say that he arranged it so that his team always played against the easier ones.

Given that the balls are impossible to differentiate, what they say is that he put 2 balls on a fridge for a couple of hours before the draw. Then, when it was the time to put the papers with the teams on the balls, he put the names of Madrid and the team he wanted one each of those cold balls and during the draw, he only had to find the colder balls to, oh surprise, ending with the Real Madrid facing the weaker oponent.

But of course that's what the fans of Barça said.

Interesting theory though.
