The mega-club tournament in the football world - UEFA Champions League is all set to resume from August 7. The European league was halted in March after coronavirus outbreak across the world, which put a brake on almost all football leagues.

The round of 16 clashes were at their full throttle when the league stopped as Atletico Madrid knocked defending champions Liverpool out from the tournament, while title-favourites Paris Saint-Germain edged past Borussia Dortmund after losing the first tie.

While, the second leg of some of the most anticipated matches didn't take place at that time, but the resumption of the league made them more anticipatory for fans.

While, the schedule of the finished Round of 16 games are announced as PSG will face Atalanta, while Atletico Madrid will lock horns with RB Leipzig in quarterfinals.

The race to enter the quarters is not over as the biggest of teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Lyon have to fight to earn their place.
