Asisat Oshoala's Barcelona Blow Chelsea Away To Win First Champions League Trophy

Asisat Oshoala's Barcelona Blow Chelsea Away To Win First Champions League Trophy By Admin Chelsea conceded four goals in the first 36 minutes as Asisat Oshoala's Barcelona blew them away to win their first Women's Champions League title in Gothenburg. Chelsea trailed 33 seconds in when an attempted clearance hit Melanie Leupolz and went in for an own goal, and Alexia Putellas' penalty made it 2-0. Aitiana Bonmati finished an intricate move and Caroline Graham Hansen tapped in to put a rampant Barca out of sight. Despite a spirited second-half display there was no way back for the Blues. Barcelona become the first club to clinch both the men's and women's Champions League title, while this was the biggest ever winning margin in a women's final. Emma Hayes' Chelsea side had hoped to add a European crown to their Women's Super League and League Cup triumphs this season, as they looked to become only the second English side in history, after Arsenal in 2007, to complete the quadruple. It was Chelsea's first Champions League final - and the first time an English side had reached the showpiece since Arsenal lifted the trophy in 2007 - and it showed with a nervous start, and failure to turn the tide once things began to unravel.
