It wasn't to be for Elena Sadiku's Celtic FC Women's side on Matchday Three of their UEFA Women's Champions League, when Chelsea triumphed 2-1 at Celtic Park.

Drawn in the same group at Real Madrid, FC Twente and, of course, the reigning WSL champions, getting anything at this level was always going to be a tall order – but the Hoops nevertheless put in a shift to be proud of on Wednesday night.

Murphy Agnew's strike on 22 minutes fired her side in front, before a quick-fire Chelsea double from Maiku Hamano and Ashley Lawrence between the 28th and 32nd minute was enough to secure three points for the visitors.
