Champions League Round of 16 draw for 2010/11 .

No one would have expected that last year finalist, Bayern Munich, faces the last year champions, Inter Milan in the last 16 of the champions league. It was a shock that both the teams are again facing each other in this year’s champions league. The shocking news is that Arsenal will again face Barcelona in the pre quarterfinal. Last year, Barcelona thrashed Arsenal 4-1 at Nou camp to enter into the semifinals, where they eventually lost to Inter Milan. Moreover, Olympique Lyon from France will meet their last year quarterfinal pair, Real Madrid, where Madrid got eliminated by Lyon, despite having a star studded team. This is how the teams have been drawn for the last 16:
  • AS Roma vs Shakhtar Donetsk
  • AC Milan vs Tottenham Hotspur
  • Valencia vs Schalke
  • Inter Milan vs FC Bayern Munich
  • Olympique Lyon vs Real Madrid
  • Arsenal vs Barcelona
  • Marseille vs Manchester United
  • FC Copenhagen vs Chelsea
