    FT: Wolfsburg 4-0 Chelsea

    Chelsea, last year's beaten Women's Champions League finalists, have their latest campaign spectacularly ended in the group stage by Wolfsburg.

    Emma Hayes' side had started the night top of Group A, but finish third. Wolfsburg were third before the game and have ended up winning the group.

    It's been a remarkable night in Wolfsburg, that's for sure.

    They go into the quarter-final draw on Monday, with Arsenal being England's only representative in the last eight.
