The CW Cup: battle of the association football teams

Benfica & Cluj are level as the final whistle goes, so my casting vote takes CFR Cluj through by 7-6 because they'd be starting as the underdogs in my mind were they to be drawn in the Champions League. Exeter also progress into the last 16 with a 7-5 win over Cork. Would've backed the Grecians if a decider was needed on predictably parochial "they're English" grounds, although I suspect League 2 is more than a match for the top tier in Ireland.

Next out of the hat:

13. Wellington Phoenix v 14. West Bromwich Albion

15. Boca Juniors v 16. Derby County


The Baggies have a long trip to NZ and the plucky Rams face the Argentine giants.
