Manchester City Women crash out of Uefa Champions League While Chelsea Women Keep Progressing

The League has been on break for some time now and so many of us including myself have missed so much actions taking place and as such, eager to see the different clubs return to their actions in the respective leagues but notwithstanding, many are still enjoying some fun and actions from the Uefa Club competition.

Funny enough, I wasn't aware of some of the matches that are still going on until a friend of one told me about then women's football. The truth is, I am not really familiar with the Uefa Women's Champions League just really got involved with the Premier League match and as such, I have been anticipating for 3 April 2021 which is Saturday when the clubs will be back to play their matches. Thanks to that friend of mine.

Yesterday, was a match between Manchester City and Barcelona women and we watched how Manchester city women crashed out of the women's Champions League match. It is a pity for them as this second leg would have given them an access to progress into the next round of competition but unfortunately for them, due to them loosing the first leg despite their 2-1 winn at home against Barcelona, they crashed out.

Despite winning the second leg, they still fell short in the quarter-final because in the first leg, Barcelona team had the victory against the English side which ended in 3-0 and this gave them an edge over Manchester City. Manchester City women gave their best but I guess their best wasn't good enough to overturn the 3 - 0 first leg deficits from the Barcelona team.

The match ended with a 2 - 1 goal from Manchester City women at the Manchester City Academy stadium but because they did not have a goal from their first leg and their second leg goal wasn't enough to back Barcelona women down from the competition, the English side will have to go back and rest now and prepare better for next season UEFA Champion League.

I think this time around the luck just isn't shining on the Manchester City women like it is shinning on their men in the Premeier League match.

While Chelsea women on the other hand that same yesterday played a match against Wolfsburg women at the Ferenc Szusza Staduim and luckily for them, they match ended in their favour as they had a 3-0 against the opposite team which gave them access to progress into the next round of the competition and good enough, they were able to defeat the Wolfsburg women in both legs of the competition.

It was a hard long match and a tough one but the Chelsea women were strong enough to stand the fight till the end until they were able to remove the Wolfsburg women finally and now, Chelsea women will continue with their fine form to the final of the competition.

One English team is out and the other is still moving. It is such a good thing that at least we have the English women aiming for the trophy this year same way we have the English men aiming for the trophy in the competition this year.
