The Blues remain second in Group D following Hacken’s win over Real Madrid earlier

What this victory means is that Chelsea remains second in Group D but opens up a three-point lead over Real Madrid, who lost to Hacken tonight. Hacken is still at the top of the table and will take on Emma Hayes’ side next in what should be a barnstorming contest. Those two fixtures could determine which team finishes on top of the group.
