Squad pledge to return to Women’s
Champions League finalOwner visited dressing room after defeat 4-0 by BarcelonaEmma Hayes revealed that Chelsea’s owner Roman Abramovich visited her team’s dressing room to commiserate with the players following their dismembering by
Barcelona in Sunday night’s Champions League final in Gothenburg.
“Our owner came in to see us and all the girls were very quick to say we’d be back here,” said Chelsea’s manager in the wake of a chastening 4-0 defeat which saw Melanie Leupolz score an own goal for the English champions inside 36 seconds. “We’ll work hard on the training ground to make sure we do that. I’m just gutted we didn’t have the chance to make a game of it. We’ve had a wonderful season but, at times, we were a bit naive.
