Champions League: Tottenham meet holders Real Madrid in group stage - Mhiz Rebecca - 08-24-2017
Tottenham will face holders Real Madrid in the group
stage of the Champions League.
Spurs were drawn in Group H alongside the Spanish
giants, German side Borussia Dortmund and Apoel of
Cyprus.
The draw pits the Premier League runners-up against
Wales winger Gareth Bale, who left Spurs for Real in a
world record deal in 2013 and will be coming up against
his old club for the first time.
Scottish champions Celtic face a tough test in a group
with Bayern Munich, Paris St-Germain and Anderlecht.
Premier League champions Chelsea have been drawn to
play Atletico Madrid, Roma and Qarabag in Group C, and
Europa League winners Manchester United face Benfica,
Basel and CSKA Moscow in Group A.
Manchester City, who finished third in the Premier
League last season, are up against Shakhtar Donetsk,
Napoli and Feyenoord in Group F, while Liverpool , who
beat Hoffenheim in a play-off to secure their place in the
draw in Monaco, will meet Spartak Moscow, Sevilla and
Maribor in Group E.
The group stages begin on 12-13 September.
The last time six British teams qualified for the group
stages was in 2007-08, when English sides Manchester
United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal were joined by
Scottish clubs Celtic and Rangers. The final saw Sir Alex
Ferguson's United defeat Avram Grant's Chelsea on
penalties.
