2013/2014 UEFA Champions League draw (Round of 16)


Arsenal vs Bayern Munich


Zenit St Petersburg vs Borussia Dortmund

Schalke vs Real Madrid

Galatasaray vs Chelsea

Bayer Leverkusen vs Paris Saint-Germain

AC Milan vs Atletico Madrid

Olympiakos vs Manchester United

Manchester City vs Barcelona



Spanish giants Barcelona were handed the toughest possible draw Monday when they were paired with Manchester City in the plum tie of the last 16 of the Champions League.


Champions Bayern Munich were also given a hard draw as they plucked Arsenal for the second year in a row at this stage.

For the English pair, who both finished second in their groups, it was yet again a harsh lesson in the importance of winning the group.

Manchester United and Chelsea, both group winners, were given far more favourable draws against Olympiakos and Galatasaray respectively.

It's going to be an homecoming for Galatasaray's Didier Drogba, as he will be looking foward for a reunion with former club Chelsea, and former manager, Jose Mourinho

French giants Paris Saint-Germain pulled Bayer Leverkusen while AC Milan will face Atletico Madrid.

Real Madrid will play Schalke 04 and Borussia Dortmund are up against Zenit St Petersburg to complete the draw.
