It’s England vs Germany In The Champions League

by David on December 17, 2018

England will face Germany in the last 16 of the Champions League — after three of the four Premier League sides were drawn against Bundesliga opponents.

Liverpool take on Bayern Munich, Tottenham face Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City play Schalke, with the two-legged ties to be played in February and March.

Manchester United’s season of turmoil took another turn for the worse when they were paired with French giants Paris Saint-Germain.

The draw will see Liverpool’s former Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp renew old rivalries with the Bavarian giants who currently sit third in their domestic league.

Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham, who squeaked into the knockout stages, will be seen as underdogs for their clash against a dominant Dortmund side who are nine points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

Manchester City, the only English team to top their group, were given what will be viewed as the easiest draw of all the Premier League clubs. They will take on Schalke, who are a lowly 13th in the German top tier.

Elsewhere, Cristiano Ronaldo is going back to Madrid – and he will no doubt will see Juventus’ draw with Atletico Madrid as the chance for him to test-drive the stadium venue for the final.
