European powerhouses Real Madrid and Liverpool will meet again in the group stage of the Champions League after a draw on Thursday that promised many reunions.
Aiming to be the first club to retain world soccer's most coveted club trophy for 25 years, the road for 10-time winner Madrid leads to five-time champion Liverpool on Oct 22.
"It's going to be a very tough game in their home," said Cristiano Ronaldo, whose Madrid team also faces Basel and newcomer Ludogorets Razgrad of Bulgaria. "I think in general the group is nice. It's going to be good for Real Madrid."
