Chelsea player ratings vs Barcelona: Niamh Charles and Magdalena Eriksson can't cope with Caroline Graham Hansen in Women's Champions League semi-final disappointment

Champions League

Barcelona

Chelsea FC Women

Ann-Katrin Berger (6/10):Made a good save to deny Salma Paralluelo in the latter stages but didn't have much to do in the game despite Barca's dominance.Eve Perisset (7/10):Solid again, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-player-ratings-barcelona-magdalena-eriksson-maren-mjelde/blt25ff9426f702d8ae" target="_blank">as she was in the first leg</a>. Did well to ensure Barca didn't get much joy down her side.Jess Carter (6/10):Made a few mistakes but did well to put pressure on the Barca attack and thwart their efforts.Maren Mjelde (6/10):Generally a solid presence at the back, though there were a few more difficult moments for her than last week.Magdalena Eriksson (5/10):Had quite a few shaky moments and didn't get a lot of help from her wing-back.Niamh Charles (5/10):Needed to help Eriksson more at the back to deal with Graham Hansen. Didn't track enough.

Goalkeeper & Defence

Erin Cuthbert (7/10):Looked to be positive when she got the ball and battled well in midfield, as always. Was her tackle that started the attack that led to Chelsea's goal.Melanie Leupolz (6/10):Lovely pass to Kerr in the build-up to the goal. Her influence on the game grew as it went on.Jessie Fleming (7/10):Added quality on the ball when Chelsea were able to have possession.

Midfield

Guro Reiten (6/10):Didn't get much service and struggled with her own final ball at times, too, but was on hand to finish the equaliser.Sam Kerr (6/10):Great run that led to the equaliser. Struggled with her hold-up play, though, and that meant Chelsea's ability to get forward was limited.

Attack

Lauren James (N/A):Came on with less than 15 minutes to go but couldn't impact the game.Pernille Harder (N/A):Came on alongside James and also struggled to have an influence.Johanna Rytting Kaneryd (N/A):Was subbed on with less than 10 minutes to go and couldn't get into the game.Emma Hayes (7/10):Hayes' decision to start Fleming was a good one, with her adding quality to Chelsea's possession, while the same five at the back system allowed the visitors to frustrate Barca again.
