Man City learn Champions League last-16 opponents as they avoid PSG

Manchester City will face RB Leipzig in the Champions League last-16 in the new year.

City topped their group as winners, securing a last-16 place with two games to spare and winning the group in their penultimate fixture away at Borussia Dortmund. That earned the Blues a tie against a second-placed finisher, with the further advantage of playing the second leg of the last-16 tie at the Etihad Stadium.

And in Monday's draw, City were paired with Leipzig in a repeat of last season's group fixtures, with the ties taking place in February and March. Crucially, City avoided the possibility of playing Paris Saint-Germain in the last-16, as well as Inter and AC Milan.
