Play-off winners Newcastle will face Barcelona in the Champions League round of 16, whilst Real Madrid will take on Manchester City, after the draw took place in Nyon, Switzerland, on Friday.

After their 3-1 aggregate win over Benfica on Wednesday in a tie marred by alleged racist abuse from Gianluca Prestiani towards Brazilian winger Vinicius Junior in the first leg, Los Blancos now take on Manchester City, who they faced earlier in the competition, falling to a 2-1 defeat at the Bernabeu.

Newcastle, who saw off Qarabag 9-3 on aggregate in their play-off win, now have a tougher task on their hands, as they face Barcelona in a tie that evokes memories of the early 2000s when the two teams battled it out in the competition.

Elsewhere, Bodo/Glimt, the fairytale story of this year’s competition after beating Inter in the play-off, now face a tie against Sporting.

Atletico Madrid’s reward for beating Club Brugge is a two-legged affair against Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur, and PSG, the reigning champions, have been pitted against Chelsea in the round of 16.
