Seeding for the Champions League round of 16 was finalized following a topsy-turvy conclusion to the group stage on Wednesday, as Paris Saint-Germain narrowly avoided a shocking early exit to reach the knockout phase.
PSG came from a goal down to earn a 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund. That result, coupled with AC Milan’s comeback victory over Newcastle United, helped the French giants finish second in the ultra-competitive Group F ahead of the Italian outfit.
Here’s a look at the seeding ahead of Monday’s draw:
Group winners (seeded)
Bayern Munich (Group A)
Arsenal (Group B)
Real Madrid (Group C)
Real Sociedad (Group D)
Atletico Madrid (Group E)
Borussia Dortmund (Group F)
