WHAT HAPPENED

We booked our place in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Women’s Champions League on Wednesday night, despite losing 4-1 to Hoffenheim in Germany.

Jonas Eidevall’s went in at the break with the scores all square, but conceded three before the hour mark in what was a disappointing defensive performance.

After creating some promising early chances through Beth Mead and Kim Little, it was the hosts who opened the scoring after breaking free on the counter and playing through Jule Brand, who fired past Lydia Williams at the near post.
