Manchester United defender Chris Smalling says he cheered when Barcelona were drawn as their Champions League quarter-final opponents.

The Blaugrana will visit Old Trafford on Wednesday night for the first leg having not lost since late January.

But Smalling says United have no fear taking on Lionel Messi and Co.

"We were warming up on the bikes in the gym [when the draw was made]," Smalling told Inside United.

"Normally we do 10 minutes on the bike and then we do some gym activation, but I think we stayed on the bikes for maybe 20 minutes just because we saw the draw was on the TV.

"We were all excited. As soon as it came out, we were all happy. We cheered and then we got on with training. But at least we knew who was in front of us.

"When the draw was made, you think, 'I want to play against teams like this'. I was injured or just coming back from being injured for the first game [of the last 16 against PSG], so it was nice to be able to test yourself against the best, and I think PSG are one of the best teams in the world.

"Mbappe is probably one of the most in-form strikers in the world as well. I love to challenge myself against the best and that's the good thing about this club: you're always playing against the best because you're getting a lot further in competitions."
