Match day 5 of the Uefa Women's Champions League resumed on Wednesday with game from different venues. Group D games were pretty much unpredictable based on the forms of notable players on the lists of Teams involved.
Chelsea Women took their game to further put Real Madrid Women in chaos when they beat Real Madrid Women by 2-1. A goalless first half meant that Real Madrid Women were going to pick a point in the game but Guro Reiten's penalty in the 62nd minute put the blues in front as Real Madrid Women fell into pressure. However, del Castillo equalized for Madrid in the 69th minute to make it 1-1. It could have been a different ball game for Real Madrid but Chana's own goal shoot Chelsea in front again and they capitalized on this error to gain all 3 points in their 5th Group game.
Hacken Women couldn't beat visiting Paris Fc feminine from France as both sides settled for a draw in Sweden. Parisienne's goalie, Chiamaka Nnadozie was very vibrant with her saves in the encounter, forcing Hacken into frustration and lack of confidence. The second half ended same way as the first half but only more chance. It ended goalless between Hacken and Paris Women on day 5.
Chelsea are through to the next phase with 11 points after punishing Real Madrid for their November 2023 loss. Hacken are getting close to securing the ticket to the quarterfinals but Paris FC women are also not too far as they will have to take their last group game seriously. Real Madrid Women are out and will have to concentrate more in their local league. Are you shocked by Real Madrid's early exit? Share your thoughts
