Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool are among those to have found out their Champions League opponents for the last-16 with some tasty ties to come

There was drama and chaos in the Champions League draw with fixtures having to be decided twice before the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool found out who they would face in the last-16.

A UEFA cock-up in the first draw meant the draw was redone with United facing Atletico Madrid and Liverpool set to take on Inter Milan.

Manchester City will meet Sporting Lisbon while Chelsea take on Lille in a tie that was pulled out in both draws.

PSG had initially been drawn against Manchester United though will now face another European powerhouse in Real Madrid.

Take a look at how the day unfolded below.

That's it!

We are all European draw-ed out for the day.

Thanks for sticking with Daily Star Sport. Goodbye!

Clearing up confusion

Essentially, when the final six teams were left, Liverpool had to play Inter Milan.

Inter couldn't face either Juventus or Real Madrid having been in the same group as Los Blancos.

It led to Liverpool being left out of the options to face Villarreal, but it all worked out in the end.

Another error?

It doesn't look like it, but it's certainly confusing.

Michael Owen points out that Liverpool were not given the chance to play Villarreal, but it seems it was to do with further ramifications.

Juventus will take on the current Europa League champions instead.
