Man United, Liverpool, and Man City have landed new Champions League opponents in the Round of 16 after the first draw was voided.

European football governing body, UEFA, was forced to conduct a redraw after mistakes at the first attempt saw Man United paired with Villarreal and then not in the pot to face Atletico Madrid.

Another error occurred when Atletico's name was read out as United were not included in the pot for their draw.

Bayern Munich were consequently confirmed as Atletico's opponents, with the Spanish champions eventually entering into talks with UEFA to seek clarity.
