Emma Hayes must pick up herself and Chelsea after Barcelona dash hopes of a fairytale ending... the Blues cannot linger on Champions League disappointment with the WSL title on the line

Emma Hayes' hopes of a fairytale ending to her Chelsea career may be over but the chance of ending the season with silverware is not.

Barcelona may have taken the Champions League away from their grasp in controversial circumstances, but there is still a Women’s Super League title to play for.

Hayes, who described the game-changing decision to send off Kadeisha Buchanan in the second leg as the ‘worst in the history of the women’s Champions League’, has to find a way to pick up herself and her players.
