Emma Hayes savoured her “favourite win” as Chelsea boss after the Blues beat Wolfsburg 3-0 in their Women’s Champions League quarter-final second-leg clash for a 5-1 aggregate victory. Hayes also spoke of a “really proud day for English football” following the result at the Szusza Ferenc Stadion in Budapest. “I’ve faced that opponent so many times and felt humiliated and lost, and I always thought they were the benchmark for women’s football alongside Lyon. “So it is a really, really proud day for English football – I think it’s important we acknowledge our league. This is a nine-year project and I think it’s a really big day for us and a really big day for women’s football in England – but it’s not enough.
