Monday morning got a lot of football fans in suspense waiting on the champions league round-of-16 draws.
Amongst the teams qualifying to the round of 16 were Ronaldo’s Manchester United and Messi’s Paris Saint Germain.
Considering the fact that United placed 1st and PSG placed 2nd, there was a chance they could draw each other and fans could not help but relish a tie between the two.
The draws worked in favour of the wishes of the fans and both teams drew each other.
A draw which had sent football fans into hysteria as they could possibly for the last time get to see the duo who once made El-classico an excitement to watch face each other.
Talk of El-classico, Madrid drew Benfica as Barca drops off to Europa league’s wonderland.
Other ties in the initial UCL Round of 16 draw included Villarreal vs Man City, Atletico vs Bayern, Salzburg vs Liverpool, Inter vs Ajax, Sporting vs Juve and Chelsea vs Lille.

Here is the list of matches in the initial full draws of the champions league to be redrawn;
