Champions League draw live broadcast! Repaint as Chelsea, Man United, Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain and more prepare to find out the fate of the Round of 16

The draw for the Champions League round of 16 will be held again after a “technical problem” caused it to be initially “declared”.

Manchester United were initially drawn to face Villarreal but that was not possible as the two teams faced each other in the group stage.

This led to confusion which led to United’s ball being incorrectly thrown out of the next tie, which could have resulted in it being thrown against Atlético Madrid.

United were eventually drawn against Paris Saint-Germain, but after an investigation UEFA confirmed that the draw had been declared invalid and would be completely reconstructed.
