Chelsea face a tough task in the Women’s Champions League quarter-finals after Friday’s draw paired them with German side Wolfsburg.
Emma Hayes’ team reached the last eight with a 3-1 aggregate win over Atletico Madrid but now face a Wolfsburg side that won the tournament in 2013 and 2014 and were runners-up last season.
Chelsea scored two penalties across the two legs of their Round of 16 win but, worryingly, also missed three from the spot against Atletico.
The Blues will be relieved they were not drawn against Lyon, who have won the competition every year since 2016, and will also avoid the French side if they reach the semi-finals, where they would face either Bayern Munich or Rosengard.
Manchester City, who have won their last nine successive Women’s Super League matches, thrashed Fiorentina 8-0 across both legs and now face Barcelona.
The Spaniards, who have never lifted the Champions League, lead the Primera Division having won all 18 of their matches this season, scoring 90 goals and conceding just three along the way.
Manchester City would face Lyon, Sparta Prague or PSG if they progress to the semi-finals.
In the other quarter-final, Frauen-Bundesliga leaders Bayern were drawn against Swedes Rosengard.
