Arsenal handed nightmare Barcelona draw in last 16 of Champions League as Chelsea take on PSG and Manchester City face Dynamo Kiev
Baku, December 14, AZERTAC
Arsenal’s prize for completing the great escape is a daunting Champions League last-16 clash with Barcelona - the third time they’ve met in six years.
The Gunners won their final two group games against Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiacos to squeeze out of Group F but will now play Luis Enrique’s Barca for a place in the quarter-finals.
Jose Mourinho could not have wished for a worse possible draw after Chelsea were again paired with Paris Saint-Germain.
PSG knocked the Premier League champions out of the competition at this stage last season.
Manchester City topped their group for the first time ever thanks to a sensational comeback against Borussia Monchengladbach and were paired with Dynamo Kiev during Monday's draw in Nyon.
