Check the draw

Hi

This draw checks out.

The secret number was fixed before any spot sold, and it produces exactly the teams below.

1. Was the number fixed in advance?

We published this fingerprint when the break opened for buying, before anyone knew a single team.

31579e4feecca6ca1a6c6c89158f8bf665580423821d180b54b122275819d6ba

Re-hashing the number we revealed gives:

31579e4feecca6ca1a6c6c89158f8bf665580423821d180b54b122275819d6ba

They match, so the number could not have been chosen to suit the result.

2. Does the number produce these teams?
