In the newly announced fixture, PSG will face former champions and Spanish powerhouses Real Madrid. Manchester United will also face Atletico Madrid, another leading Spanish team. In other pre-quarters, Bayern Munich will face Salzburg, Manchester City Sporting Lisbon, Benfica Ajax, defending champions Chelsea Lille, Juventus Vieira and Liverpool Inter Milan.
The first quarter pre-quarters of the Champions League will be on February 15, 16, 22 and 23, 2022. The second quarter pre-quarters will also take place on March 8, 9, 15 and 16. It is also the Champions League pre-quarter without Barcelona, former champions and powerhouses of Spanish football. This time Barcelona failed to qualify for the knockout round.
Earlier in the Spanish league when Barcelona and Real Madrid were part of the teams, blockbuster fights between Messi and Ronaldo were a regular sight. But with Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid for Juventus, football fans are losing sight of the constant rift between these legends.
