Manchester United have been handed a tricky qualification Women's Champions League draw against Paris Saint-Germain.
WHAT HAPPENED? United could not have been given a more difficult tie, with PSG finishing just six points off of Ligue 1 winners Lyon last season. The first leg will be played on October 10/11, with the return fixture scheduled for a week later.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: United qualified for the Champions League for the first time in their short history by securing a second-place WSL finish last season. They have endured a tumultuous summer, losing star players Alessia Russo and Ona Batlle on free transfers to Arsenal and Manchester United respectively.
They have managed to strengthen in the transfer market, though, bringing in the likes of Geyse from Barcelona and also signing World Cup Golden Boot winner Hinata Miyazawa, while keeping hold of goalkeeper Mary Earps amid interest from Arsenal.
