Chelsea will have to come from behind to reach the women's Champions League final after a 1-0 defeat to Barcelona in their semi-final first leg at Stamford Bridge.
A rematch from the 2021 final, where Chelsea lost 4-0, was settled by an early strike from Caroline Graham Hansen with Barca deserving winners.
The Blues had a nightmare start when Hansen drove inside from the right and unleashed a shot that flew past Ann-Katrin Berger after just four minutes. Chelsea thought they had levelled when Guro Reiten did have the ball in the net, but Sam Kerr was narrowly offside in the build-up.
