Thompson's shooting boots go missing as Chelsea UWCL dream dies

Chelsea were knocked out of the Women’s Champions League on Wednesday after failing to overturn a 3-1 aggregate deficit to Arsenal, winning 1-0 in the second leg of their quarter-final. The Blues gave themselves too much to do after their defeat at the Emirates Stadium last week and their wastefulness in front of goal is to blame for another failed European campaign.

Job done! Wubben-Moy & Van Domselaar stand tall for Arsenal

Arsenal's Women's Champions League title defence remains well and truly on track after the Gunners withstood Chelsea's attempts of a comeback at Stamford Bridge, falling to a narrow and late 1-0 defeat to win 3-2 on aggregate, having beaten their London rivals 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium last Tuesday night. It felt like the Blues had to start fast and score early to stand any chance of overcoming the deficit and so once Arsenal had prevented them from doing exactly that, progression to the semi-finals rarely looked in doubt.

Brave United undone by Bayern as defensive tactics fall short

Manchester United's Women's Champions League adventure came to a dramatic end on Wednesday, as Bayern Munich staged a late comeback to beat the Red Devils 2-1 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate. Marc Skinner's side started well in Germany and took a deserved early lead through Melvine Malard, but a defensive approach to the second half proved extremely costly as United succumbed to two late goals that sent the German champions through to the semi-finals, where they will likely face Barcelona.

Alessia Russo Arsenal GFX

How Russo has put herself back in Ballon d'Or contention

Talk of Alessia Russo's goal-scoring has dominated conversation around the England international for most of her senior career to date. It's become especially prominent since her move from Manchester United to Arsenal three years ago, with the scrutiny increased because of the switch and also the fact she's become the Lionesses' starting centre-forward. But in this past week in particular, Russo has shown what remarkable steps she has made towards that talk becoming obsolete.
