Real Madrid vs. PSG by Champions League: day, time and channel of the great game

Real Madrid vs. PSG will face off in the last 16 of the 2021-22 Champions League season. After the repetition of the draw, the white club was paired with the French cast. The first leg of the commitment is agreed for the 15th, 16th, 22nd and 23rd of February. While the return is scheduled for March 8, 9, 15 and 16.

The most anticipated crossing of the next stage of the Champions League will be broadcast through the signals of the international chain ESPN and through the Star + platform. Also, according to UEFA’s programming, the matches will be played from three in the afternoon (Peruvian time).

The new confrontation between Real Madrid and PSG has various ingredients that make this tie the most attractive on the route through the ‘Orejona’. From the outset, Lionel Messi, who left Barcelona at the start of this campaign, will once again set foot on the Santiago Bernabéu stadium court and face a lifelong rival.

It will also represent Kylian Mbappé’s visit to the ‘White House’. The French world champion will end his contract with his current club in mid-2022 and within a few weeks he will be able to negotiate with any entity. In this sense, the madridistas are emerging as candidates to take over the services of ‘Kiki’.

There is more, since those directed by Carlo Ancelotti are going through the best moment of the course. They won their group in the Champions League and last Sunday they beat Atlético de Madrid in LaLiga Santander to establish themselves as the absolute leaders. Although, until February, everything can change.

What happened in the first draw?

On paper, the first draw (canceled due to errors, according to UEFA) left Real Madrid better off because it paired with Benfica, one of the clubs that have fewer options compared to others with more power.

While PSG was going to star in a very interesting duel against Manchester United. And that duel had more to offer because Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo had the option of meeting again in an official match.
