For Iranian television, Maccabi Haifa does not play in the Champions League: when they reflected the distribution of the groups, in section H they only left PSG (Paris Saint-Germain) from France, Juventus from Italy and Benfica from Portugal.
The image speaks for itself. All groups have four boxes while the last one, where the Israeli team is, only has three.
This is how the Iraqi newspaper “Al Sabaah” describes the results of the draw for the Champions League. Note the H house below.
Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Benfica and a Black spot play in it. Messi and Neymar will play against a black spot.
Apparently, the black spot raised questions. So, the newspaper explained on Twitter that they deleted the group belonging to the “Zionist entity”.
