Champions League quarter final draw: Leicester face another trip to Spain

Inevitably tough draw for Leicester

JOE

It’s that point of the season where Champions League draws guarantee mouthwatering ties.

Unfortunately from a British perspective, only one of the five teams that were in the group stages have made it to the last eight stage.

That team is, of course, Leicester City, who managed to overcome a 2-1 first leg defeat against Sevilla at the King Power on Tuesday night.

As reward for that, they’ll now face another inevitably tough draw, as they face last year’s beaten finalists, Atletico Madrid.

Elsewhere, there’s a repeat of the 2015 final with Juventus taking on Barcelona, while current champions Real Madrid take on Bayern Munich in another heavyweight clash.

Manchester City’s conquerers, AS Monaco, will face Borussia Dortmund in the other quarter final.

The draw in full:

Atletico Madrid vs Leicester City

Borussia Dortmund vs AS Monaco

Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid

Juventus vs Barcelona
