All the updates from the last-16 Champions League draw.

Barcelona will face Paris St Germain and former title holder Bayern Munich is up against Italy's Lazio in the last 16 of the Champions League after UEFA's draw was held on Monday.

The clash of Lionel Messi and Barca with last year's runners-up PSG is a repeat of their remarkable meeting at the same stage in 2017 when Barca overcame a 4-0 first leg loss to beat the French club 6-1 in Spain.

Bayern will start as favourites in its tie but will be wary of Simone Inzaghi's Lazio team which has reached this stage for the first time in 20 years.
