Chelsea Women were eliminated from the Women's Champions League semi-finals after a 4-1 loss to Barcelona, resulting in an aggregate score of 8-2. Despite a promising start, Chelsea could not convert opportunities and were overwhelmed by Barcelona's finishing, with standout performances leading to an early lead. Chelsea's Erin Cuthbert recognized the defeat and emphasized the need to learn from this experience, highlighting the pressure of playing for a top club. The team aims to use this setback as motivation for future success.
"It's fair to say we were beaten fair and square. We had a good spell in the first 20 minutes. But if you don't score, Barca are always going to go up the other end and hurt you."
"For us [after half-time], it was just about playing with a bit of pride. We were 3-0 down and the tie was probably lost at that point."
