The happiest man following yesterday’s UEFA Champions League draw would undoubtedly be David Beckham. AC Milan’s loan signing has been saying all week how he would love the chance to play against former club Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Round of 16 (while he is still there)… and he got it. There is also another Milan-based returnee in this round, as Jose Mourinho’s Inter take on Chelsea. Arsenal will play FC Porto.
In the other ties, holders Barcelona have been drawn against Stuttgart, Real Madrid face Lyon, Bayern Munich play Fiorentina, CSKA Moscow will take on Sevilla, and Bordeaux have been paired with Olympiacos.
The teams that finished top of their group have the advantage of playing their second leg at home.
