Football News: UCL last-16 draw, Liverpool v Spurs and more

Barcelona will face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League round of 16 in a rematch of their classic encounter at the same stage four seasons ago. In 2017, PSG wasted a 4-0 first-leg lead by losing 6-1 at Camp Nou in the second leg when Barcelona scored three goals from the 88th minute on. However, Neymar has since left Lionel Messi’s side in Spain and switched to PSG, which also did not have Kylian Mbappé back then. Barcelona will host the first leg this time because it was unseeded in Monday’s draw after failing to win its group. Defending champion Bayern Munich was paired with a Lazio team returning to the knockout stage after a two-decade gap. Atalanta will host 13-time champion Real Madrid, and Liverpool is away first against Leipzig. Cristiano Ronaldo will return to his native Portugal with Juventus for the first leg against Porto with the remainder of the draw seeing Borussia Monchengladbach versus Manchester City; Atletico Madrid facing Chelsea and Sevilla taking on Borussia Dortmund over two legs.
