Real Madrid will face a rematch with Jose Mourinho’s Benfica in the Champions League knockout playoff round, while holders Paris Saint-Germain face a clash with fellow French side AS Monaco.
Madrid and Benfica’s fate in the playoffs were sealed after a remarkable final game of the league phase, which featured a last-minute header from goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin. That goal clinched Benfica’s spot in the 16-team playoffs, while defeat dropped Madrid out of the top-eight automatic qualifying places.
Madrid are now set for another reunion with former boss Mourinho in the playoffs, with the two-legged matches taking place on Feb. 17-18 and Feb 24-25.
Elsewhere, PSG will face Monaco while Atlético Madrid take on Club Brugge, and Juventus travel to face Galatasaray.
