Bring on the knockout rounds of the Champions League! What a round it should be as giants face off. The masters of the easy Champions League draw were not done justice on Thursday as Manchester United were drawn with Real Madrid.
The battle of titans highlights the Round of 16 Champions League matchups. It will mark the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to face his old club and will also be the first meeting between the two clubs in a decade. Just how will Cristiano Ronaldo be greeted at Old Trafford?
It is not the only juicy pairing though. Arsenal were drawn with German powers Bayern Munich while beautiful Barcelona will face off with Italian giants AC Milan. Barca beat Milan four times in last year's UCL. Can Milan break the run and pull a huge upset?
It looks to be the best round of 16 in memory. Perennial underdogs Celtic got a tough draw as they must face Juventus. It will take another tremendous performance to survive the strong Serie A squad.
Real Madrid - Manchester Untied
Arsenal - Bayern Munich
AC Milan - Barcelona
Shakhtar Donetsk - Borussia Dortmund
Valencia - Paris St Germain
Celtic - Juventus
Galatasaray - Schalke
Porto - Malaga
