Seven-time European champions AC Milan, winners of a marathon 24-penalty shootout against Rio Ave on Thursday, were rewarded by being drawn against Celtic and Lille in their Europa League Group on Thursday.
Milan, banned from the competition last season for breaching Uefa’s break-even Financial Fair Play rule, scraped through 9-8 on penalties after snatching a last-gasp 2-2 draw with the Portuguese side. They were drawn in Group F, one of the toughest of the 12 groups, which also features Sparta Prague.
Arsenal are to face Rapid Vienna, Norway’s Molde and Ireland’s Dundalk in Group B.
Tottenham face Ludogorets Razgrad, LASK Linz and Royal Antwerp in Group J. On Thursday, Harry Kane scored his first hat trick of the season in a 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa.
