Friday’s UEFA Champions League quarterfinal draw saw Paris Saint-Germain, possibly the world’s richest team, paired with Barcelona, the world’s most successful team over the last five years. The two-game series will match up Zlatan Ibrahimovic against his former club, although the Swede is suspended for the first-leg in Paris.

The other quarterfinals see Champions League debutant Malaga take on German champion Borussia Dortmund, reigning La Liga champion Real Madrid against Galatasaray, the Turkish champion, and Bayern Munich against Italian champion Juventus.

The Real-Gala clash will see Los Blancos coach Jose Mourinho reunited with former players Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder. Mourinho signed both players in his time as head coach of Chelsea and Inter Milan, respectively. Mourinho is aiming to become the first coach to win the Champions League with three different clubs, having already lifted the trophy with FC Porto in 2004 and Inter in 2010.
