Champions League Draw 2010-2011: A First Look at Club Championship Draws

Champions League Draw 2010-2011: A First Look at Club Championship Draws : The Champions League draw for the 2010-2011 tournament was conducted Thursday, and there are some truly tantalizing matchups on the schedule.

Among them is a 2010 final rematch between Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, and a rivalry being renewed between Barcelona and Arsenal (Barca knocked the Gunners out of the tournament in the quarterfinals last season, and knocked them out in the finals in 2006).

But, there are other promising matchups, as well. Tottenham, top scorers in the group stage, battle an extremely strong Milan side, while Real Madrid face French foe Lyon. Marseilles battles Manchester United, Chelsea take on Copenhagen, and Valencia and FC Schalke duke it out. Finally, Roma take on Shaktar Donetsk of the Russian league.

The first legs of the matchups take place February 15 and 16 and 22 and 23. The second legs will take place March 8 and 9, and 15 and 16.
