UEFA Champions League draw results: Barcelona get Napoli, Arsenal see Porto, while Inter draw Atletico Madrid

Atletico #Atletico

The UEFA Champions League round of 16 draw is keeping the powder dry for this year’s edition with SSC Napoli vs. Barcelona and Inter vs. Atletico Madrid arguably the two most enticing matchups in a slate of underrated encounters. There is also Paris Saint-Germain vs. Real Sociedad and RB Leipzig vs. Real Madrid to look forward to despite an absence of showdowns between two giants which looked likely with Inter and PSG both unseeded in this draw. FC Porto vs. Arsenal, PSV Eindhoven vs. Borussia Dortmund, SS Lazio vs. Bayern Munich and FC Copenhagen vs. Manchester City all have their charm, but neither can match the Napoli vs. Barca or Inter vs. Atleti pairings in terms of prestige.
