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.

20f597a625740d3faef898bed9754f2e3746256c8d40b91e8a40c07f54b8cc39

Re-hashing the number we revealed gives:

20f597a625740d3faef898bed9754f2e3746256c8d40b91e8a40c07f54b8cc39

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

2. Does the number produce these teams?
