Robert Lewandowski will get an instant reunion with his former team

The draw for the 2022-23 Champions League group stage has been completed.

The obvious highlight was Group C, where Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski will return to face his former side Bayern Munich. With Inter also in the mix, it appears to be one of the toughest groups in the competition.

There will be another high-profile reunion in Group G, where Manchester City’s newest striker Erling Haaland will face his former club Borussia Dortmund.

Elsewhere, PSG and Juventus were drawn together in Group H, alongside Benfica and Maccabi Haifa.
