The Champions League round-of-16 draw was redone on Monday, with Paris Saint-Germain to face Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid paired with Manchester United.
UEFA confirmed that a “clerical error” occurred where United were mistakenly omitted as potential opponents for Atletico in the original draw.
UEFA director Giorgio Marchetti said ahead of the redraw: “I apologise we have had to redraw to do the round-of-16 draw. There were some errors made in the original draw.”
Inter, who first had been drawn against Ajax, will now face Liverpool. Chelsea and Lille were paired together in both draws.
Juventus will face Villarreal, Manchester City are up against Sporting CP and Benfica were paired with Ajax.
Group winners will be away in the first leg, with ties to be played on Feb. 15-16 and Feb. 22-23. Return legs will be played on March 8-9 and March 15-16.
The away goals rule has also been abolished in European tournament knockout ties this season.
