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.

de17c47528e6b354375e116556c235b14614d10f064ca2fca3cab3faed06e693

Re-hashing the number we revealed gives:

de17c47528e6b354375e116556c235b14614d10f064ca2fca3cab3faed06e693

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

2. Does the number produce these teams?
