UCL: Barcelona take on Manchester City as Arsenal face Bayern Munich again
Manchester City against Barcelona is the pick of the ties to emerge from Monday's Champions League Round of 16 draw in Nyon.
The
Spanish champions will face Manuel Pellegrini's free-scoring side after
being drawn first out of the pot in the proceedings. Jose Mourinho
faces another reunion with former striker Didier Drogba after his
Chelsea side were drawn against Galatasaray, who edged out Juventus on
match day six of the group phase.
Arsenal will face Bayern Munich,
meanwhile, in a repeat of their encounter from last season, while
fellow Bundesliga outfit Schalke face the daunting task of nine-time
champions Real Madrid.
Elsewhere, Manchester United will face
Greek champions Olympiakos, while Paris Saint-Germain take on Bundesliga
high-flyers Bayer Leverkusen.
AC Milan's reward for edging into
the last 16 is Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid. Finally, Borussia
Dortmund - beaten finalists last season - face Russian giants Zenit St
Petersburg.
The sides who finished as group runners-up will host
the first leg encounters on the February 18/19 and 25/26, while the
second legs take place on March 11/12 and 18/19.
