Despite this European disappointment, the atmosphere within the Chelsea camp remains combative as the team refocuses on the national championship. The Blues have already won the Women’s League Cup this season, but their grip on the Women’s Super League title is slipping. Bompastor’s side are currently nine points behind leaders Manchester City with just three games remaining, putting them on the brink of losing the league title for the first time in six seasons and only the third time in eleven campaigns.
With their WSL hopes hanging by a thread, Bronze urged her teammates to maintain the level of performance displayed in the second leg against Arsenal, concluding: “We can be proud of ourselves, we were the better team, we won the game today. We have to maintain this energy and this concentration until the end of the season, because there are still things to play for. » The team must now quickly get back into shape to face Tottenham in the FA Cup quarter-finals on Monday, hoping to add a second trophy to their tally this season and bounce back from European elimination.
