Chelsea vs Barcelona LIVE: Result and reaction from Women’s Champions League semi-final

Chelsea take on Barcelona for a place in the final of the Women’s Champions League after booking a spot in the final four in a dramatic quarter-final win against Lyon.

Maren Mjelde’s last gasp penalty deep in extra time of the second leg ensured Chelsea took the current Champions League holders to penalties, with Emma Hayes’s side victorious in the shootout, winning 4-3 to progress.

Barcelona faced Roma in the previous round and had a rather easier outing. The Liga F champions demolished the Italians 5-1 in the second leg which showcased their intent to win this competition again.

Barca have only lifted the Women’s Champions League once when they triumphed in the 2021 final. Coincidentally, that game was also the last time these two sides met when a brilliant display for the Spanish side earned them a comprehensive 4-0 victory. Chelsea will be hoping for some revenge this season.

Barcelona win 1-0 and take an slight advantage back to the Camp Nou. The tie is all to play for though.

78 mins: Parralluelo is still keen add to Barcelona’s lead. She bombs up the pitch on the counter-attack and nudges the ball into the left side of the box. Under pressure from Maren Mjelde, Parralluelo shoots but Berger has the shot covered and keeps it out.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

14:07 , Mike Jones

75 mins: Marta Torrejon has replaced Lucy Bronze for Barcelona. Bronze has an ice pack wrapped over her right knee as she watches on from the stands.

That doesn’t look too good for the Lioness ahead of this summer’s World Cup. Sarina Wiegman has already lost captain Leah Williamson to an ACL injury so to lose Bronze to injury too would be a massive blow.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

14:05 , Mike Jones

72 mins: Chelsea seem revitalised. After 10 minutes or so of playing on the back foot, they’re pushing up the pitch again searching for the equaliser.

Should this game end with Barcelona taking a lead back to the Camp Nou then things will be even more difficult for the Blues in the second leg.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

14:00 , Mike Jones

69 mins: Another change for Chelsea. Emma Hayes sees that her team need to get more control in the middle of the park and takes off Erin Cuthbert to bring on Sophie Ingle

It’s a more defensive option but should gain the Blues more possession.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:57 , Mike Jones

66 mins: A Chelsea free kick is floated deep into the box by Eve Perisset. The ball is recycled back across the penalty area where Magdalena Eriksson nods the ball across to Eri Cuthbert.

Cuthbert is free and takes a headed effort of her own. She hits it well enough but Sandro Panos grabs hold of the ball.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:54 , Mike Jones

63 mins: That effort was Geyse’s last involvement of the game as she is replaced with Mariona Caldentey. Caldentey is a more physical centre-forward and could cause a few problems for the more tired Chelsea defenders.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:51 , Mike Jones

60 mins: Chance! Terrific play from Barcelona.

Rolfo brings the ball down the left side before playing it up to Geyse. She combines with Parralluelo for a one-two and gets in behind the Blues’ defence.

When the ball comes bacl Geyse shoots but can’t beat Berger at the near post.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:49 , Mike Jones

13:22 , Mike Jones

45+4 mins: The whistle goes to bring the first 45 minutes of this Women’s Champions League semi-final to a close. Caroline Graham Hansen’s electric strike has given the visitors the lead but Chelsea responded well.

They had a goal disallowed and showed more than enough attacking qualities to keep Barcelona on their toes. Can the Blues equalise after the break?

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:19 , Mike Jones

45+2 mins: Close! Graham Hansen creates another great chance for Barcelona.

She uses her strength to hold off Charles then weaves into the box. Her ball into the six-yard area comes bouncing through to the back post where Parralluelo just can’t prod it home.

13:17 , Mike Jones

45 mins: There’s going to be four minutes of added time to play before the end of the first half.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:14 , Mike Jones

42 mins: Graham Hansen collects the ball out wide and wastes no time sending a cross into the middle. Carter rises highest and flicks the ball away.

39 mins: Mapi Leon joins Kerr in the book after a handball. Chelsea win a free kick over on the left wing and have the chance to whip the ball into the box.

Cankovic sends in the cross but Rolfo nods it clear.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:10 , Mike Jones

36 mins: Emma Hayes’ tactical changes seem to have paid off for Chelsea. They’re playing a few yards further forward which is allowing them to compe more in midfield.

An interception from the visitors knocks the ball to Lucy Bronze who is hacked down by a lunging Sam Kerr. Barca win a free kick and Kerr gets booked.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:07 , Mike Jones

33 mins: Another blind side run from Sam Kerr gets her inside of Mapi Leon and into the box as Erin Cuthbert chips over a pass. Irene Paredes gets across to cover for her centre-back partner and beats Kerr in the air.

The defender’s header loops the ball into the air and Sandra Panos jogs off her line to claim it.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:02 , Mike Jones

30 mins: Wonderful from Lucy Bronze!

Chelsea send the ball up to Sam Kerr who dinks it into the box and picks out Guro Reiten making a diagonal run into the right side of the box.

She dances around the goalkeeper again and shoots but Bronze sprints towards the line and deflects the ball wide of the near post!

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

13:00 , Mike Jones

29 mins: Although the goal doesn’t stand it’s a warning to the visitors that Chelsea won’t just roll over this time around.

Kerr and Reiten in particular are trying to nip in behind the defence and if they time their runs correctly it could be a fruitful avenue for the Blues to exploit.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:58 , Mike Jones

26 mins: Disallowed goal! Erin Cuthbert slides a through ball into Sam Kerr who makes a fine run in behind Barcelona’s high line. She carries the ball into the box then sends it over to Guro Reiten.

Reiten dribbles around goalkeeper Sandro Panos and slots it home but the offside flag goes up and VAR shows that Kerr just drifted offside in the build-up.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:57 , Mike Jones

25 mins: Good work from Maren Mjelde! A Barcelona cross comes in from the right side of the pitch and falls nicely for Salma Parralluelo.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:55 , Mike Jones

22 mins: Better from Chelsea! Cuthbert takes hold of the ball in the middle of the pitch and flicks a nice pass over the top to Guro Reiten.

She brings the ball down inside the box, moves inside of Irene Paredes then lays the ball over to Sam Kerr. Kerr guides a side-footed effort at goal but Barca recover and get bodies behind the ball.

They block the effort.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:52 , Mike Jones

19 mins: Barcelona have enjoyed the better of these opening 20 minutes or so. Berger goes down needing to stretch out a bit of cramp and Emma Hayes takes the opportunity to get her players over to the touchline to issue new instructions.

The Blues need to impose themselves on the game a bit more.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:49 , Mike Jones

16 mins: Shot! A failed interception from Erin Cuthbert knocks the ball over to Lucy Bronze. Bronze sends the ball over to Caroline Graham Hansen who then squares a pass into the feet of Geyse.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:46 , Mike Jones

13 mins: Chance! Lucy Bronze’s quality is well known but that doesn’t make it any easier to defend against her. She drives down the line, links up with Graham Hansen for a one two then flicks the ball back to the winger who darts into the box.

Graham Hansen shoots but her effort is timid and Berger has no issues scooping up the ball at the near post.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:41 , Mike Jones

10 mins: Graham Hansen gets the ball once again over on the right wing. She looks confident and tries to take on Niamh Charles who holds her ground and recovers possession.

Charles has been given the nod ahead of Lauren James today, probably due to her commitment to get back and help out the defence.

Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona

12:39 , Mike Jones

7 mins: Barcelona also scored early in the 2021 WCL final against Chelsea. On that occasion the Blues shipped four goals before half-time and they can’t afford to do so again today.

The Blues have responded well though. A couple of attacks get them into the box but they aren’t clinical with the final pass and the visitors clear their lines.

GOAL! Chelsea 0-1 Barcelona (Graham Hansen, 4’)⚽️

12:38 , Mike Jones

4 mins: That’s incredible! Caroline Graham Hansen receives the ball for Barcelona over on the right wing. She dribbles inside and runs across the edge of the penalty area.

Chelsea don’t engage her leaving the forward with time to shoot. She does and blasts a wonderful strike to the far corner leaving Ann-Katrin Berger no chance to keep it out.

Barcelona strike first!

Chelsea 0-0 Barcelona

12:35 , Mike Jones

3 mins: Barcelona commit a few players forward but Carter does well to take the ball off Aitana Bonmati. The Chelsea left-back releases a long ball up the pitch and almost sends Sam Kerr in behind.

Barcelona, whose Women’s Champions League semi-final record is won three, lost two have progressed in three of their last four ties at this stage.

Their only failure in that time coming against Wolfsburg in 2019/20.

How a dramatic 48 hours sparked a new era for women’s football

12:20 , Mike Jones

Two nights, two teams, and a momentous 48 hours for English clubs in the Women’s Champions League. Yet when Emma Hayes, drained after Chelsea’s head-spinning escape against Lyon, soaked in the buzz that lingered in the air at Stamford Bridge she recognised the importance of not just one victory, but two. “How brilliant was that, what a performance from them,” she said, but Hayes spoke of Arsenal’s display in their stunning win over Bayern Munich, not of Chelsea’s dethroning of Lyon to join the Gunners in the semi-finals.

Both Chelsea and Arsenal had taken huge steps forward in the competition, Arsenal in reaching their first semi-final since 2013, Chelsea in knocking out the eight-time winners after a night of the highest drama. Chelsea played their first knockout match in the Champions League at Stamford Bridge and delivered a comeback to stand among any in the club’s European history, on the night after Arsenal set new records and made the Emirates feel like a home. Jonas Eidevall said history was being written in front of their eyes, and there will now be bigger nights to come.

“I’m so happy for English football,” Hayes said, after a week that can accelerate interest in the club game - just as the Lionesses started to crackle during their run to the Euros final, before peaking with victory at Wembley. Should either Chelsea or Arsenal go all the way and end English’s football’s 13-year wait for a Women’s Champions League winner then there is potential for it to be a similar seismic moment. Leah Williamson is already attune to it, with the suggestion that Arsenal could one day make the Emirates their permanent home now said to be a realistic vision.

Chelsea reached this stage of the competition three times in four seasons between 2018 and 2021.

They went out 5-1 on aggregate to Wolfsburg in April 2018 and the following year lost 3-2 to Lyon, who would go on to defeat Barcelona in the Budapest final in May 2019.

Hayes on facing Barcleona again

12:15 , Mike Jones

"We will get chances, as will they, we have to convert them," said Chelsea boss, Emma Hayes. "As a whole team, for 90 minutes, everybody has to defend at an unbelievable level to make it difficult because Barcelona average 20-25 chances a game.

"Every team evolves, Barca have improved in lots of ways, developed lots of experience, added new players and lots of dimensions, equally so have we."

Pre-match thoughts from Barcelona’s Keira Walsh

12:12 , Mike Jones

“I don’t speak the best Spanish so a lot of the conversation I do miss! Everyone’s in good spirits and in training it’s really competitive and everyone’s enjoying it.

“You don’t want to feel the nerves and feel the tension in training, you want everyone to be relaxed. It’s a really good atmosphere so I’m looking forward to the game.

“Everyone’s confident but I wouldn’t say we view ourselves as a favourite. We go into every game thinking that we want to play a certain way and we want to win. The three other teams that are left in it are also great teams with great players.

“We’re confident in the way that we’re playing and the style that we’re playing. We’ve got some unbelievable players here as well. For me it’s just exciting to be a part of this team and I’m just really looking forward to playing both of the games in big stadiums.”

Chelsea have learnt from Barcelona loss

12:09 , Mike Jones

Chelsea boss, Emma Hayes, says her team have learnt a lot from the 2021 Champions League final defeat to Barcelona and that they are in a better place to take on the Spanish champions this time around.

"The learnings from that night [v Barcelona] were significant for us as a club," said Hayes.

"You have to go through those moments. I’m pretty certain [captain] Magda Eriksson and I have had 1,000 conversations since then about how to keep raising the bar for our team and we’ve done that.

"We are as best prepared as we can possibly be. We know what to expect. We’re better off as a result of that night."

How Chelsea pulled off Champions League’s greatest escape

12:05 , Mike Jones

How on earth did Chelsea escape this? With 122 minutes on the clock against Lyon, the dominant force in the Champions League, Chelsea were done, out, and had reached the end of their road in this competition. But the night after Arsenal made the Emirates their home, Chelsea had their moment at Stamford Bridge to join them in the semi-finals. How they needed those fans in the Shed End during the penalty shootout, as Ann-Katrin Berger saved from Wendie Renard and then Lindsey Horan to seal a famous victory on a night of stunning drama.

With a sense of growing inevitability, Lyon had shown the authority of eight-time winners to overturn Chelsea’s first-leg lead. In extra time Chelsea were doing all they could to hold on, down to their barest of bones. With Chelsea depleted, Lyon strengthened.

Sonia Bompastor could call upon quality at the level of Ada Hegerberg and Sara Dabritz and they combined for what looked to be the winning goal in the 110th minute. But then, deep into stoppage time, the ball broke to Lauren James and Chelsea dragged themselves into European folklore.

Emma Hayes hails ‘character-building’ Chelsea performance in win over Lyon

12:01 , Mike Jones

Chelsea boss Emma Hayes was left “exhausted” after watching her side advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League on penalties against reigning European champions Lyon at Stamford Bridge.

Hayes’ side were facing elimination two minutes into injury time at the end of extra-time following Sara Dabritz’s goal that looked to have won it for Lyon.

They were rescued by Maren Mjedle’s penalty after Lauren James had been tripped inside the box, with a protracted VAR check leaving the tie in limbo for almost five minutes whilst a decision was reached.

Mjedle then showed an ice-cold nerve to step up and take the first kick of the shootout, before goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger made herself the hero with saves from Wendie Renard and Lindsey Horan to cap an incredible fightback.

It kept alive Chelsea’s hopes of becoming the first English side to win the tournament as they continue to chase an unprecedented treble.

Chelsea have reached the last four of this competition for the first time since 2021, knocking out reigning champions and eight-time winners Lyon in the quarter-finals.

Barcelona recorded the competition’s biggest ever final victory with a 4-0 win against the Blues in Gothenburg in May 2021.

Chelsea are the only side left in this season’s Women’s Champions League who are yet to lift the trophy. They welcome Barcelona for the first leg of their semi-final this afternoon.

Leah Williamson’s ACL injury has to be a final wake-up call for football

11:42 , Mike Jones

You feared the worst when Leah Williamson went down, and then the worst was confirmed. England’s captain will miss the Women’s World Cup after rupturing her anterior cruciate ligament, the scans revealing what those within the game have sadly become conditioned to expect. Williamson had collapsed over her right knee in the 12th minute of Arsenal’s match against Manchester United on Wednesday and her immediate reaction, as well as those around her as she hobbled down the tunnel, all but told you what had happened.

It is a devastating blow for Williamson and the Lionesses, but only one that those who are yet to wake up to the crisis hanging over this summer’s World Cup will be surprised by.

Williamson knew. “I had my tears and made my peace with it the night it happened,” she posted on Instagram shortly after the news broke. Yet there was a further line from the 26-year-old that emphasised where women’s football is three months away from the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. “The noise around the situation is loud,” she said. “Ultimately, I think it’s just my time.”

Chelsea manager Emma Hayes says her team will have to defend "at an unbelievable level" if they are to best Barcelona in their Champions League semi-final.

"It will be tough. We have to play a perfect game, have to execute at both ends of the pitch to give ourselves the perfect chance," added Hayes.

"We’re a team which is used to struggling, we know how to suffer. We’re going to have to do that for a lot of the game. But we have a dressing room that are motivated and ready to perform."

Lionesses colleague Fran Kirby has been battling injury for much of this season, but Pernille Harder returned to the bench for the FA Cup win against Aston Villa and could feature.

For Barcelona, Alexia Putellas is getting closer to a return after tearing her ACL just before last summer’s Euros. the Midfielder has been back in full training, though this first leg has come too soon for her. Claudia Pina and Mariona Caldentey are back fit.
