It was the one hurdle Emma Hayes could not overcome - knock out Barcelona. In three of the four seasons before this one, Chelsea's Champions League dream died at the hands of the Catalan club. There was the final humbling in 2021, and two semi-final heartbreaks in 2023 and 2024. But is 2025 the year they finally break the hoodoo?
