Barcelona will face Manchester United in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League after the draw that took place at UEFA’s headquarters in Nyon on Friday.
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will head back to the Camp Nou where he famously scored the late winner to secure the treble for his club in 1999.
Premier League champions Manchester City will tackle Tottenham Hotspur in an all-English tie, while Liverpool will play Porto who they beat 5-0 on aggregate in last year’s round of 16 during their thrilling run to the final in Kiev where they ultimately lost to Real Madrid.
Ajax, who knocked out three-time back to back defending champions Real Madrid in the last stage will host Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus side.
The draw contained four English sides for the first time since 2009 when Manchester United went on to reach the final in Rome.
