Barcelona vs Chelsea LIVE: Women’s Champions League result and reaction after the Blues’ historic win

Barcelona 0-1 Chelsea: Erin Cuthbert’s goal secured a famous win as the Champions League holders lost at home for the first time in five years

Chelsea match-winner Erin Cuthbert sends message to fans after historic result

Chelsea stunned Women’s Champions League holders Barcelona by becoming the first team to beat them away from home in more than five years as Emma Hayes’s side claimed a 1-0 win to take back to Stamford Bridge for next week’s semi-final second leg.

Erin Cuthbert scored the only goal of the game as an immense defensive performance ensured Barcelona failed to score in a game for the first time in two years. Alexia Putellas missed a golden chance in the final seconds as Chelsea held on, but Chelsea goalkeeper Hannah Hampton did not have a shot to save.

Chelsea’s first ever win over Barcelona, who have won the Champions League in two out of the last three seasons, means the English champions will go through to the Bilbao final if they avoid defeat at Stamford Bridge next Saturday.
