in the semifinal West Ham lost 0-2 to Chelsea. First-half strikes from Johanna Rytting Kaneryd and Sjoeke Nüsken gave the home side a firm grip on the last-four tie at the break, and as much as the Hammers battled in the second period, they were unable to find a breakthrough.
Rehanne Skinner’s side can be extremely proud of their performance in south-west London as they went toe to toe with Sonia Bompastor’s outfit for the majority of the tie, but it was Chelsea who progressed to the showpiece at Pride Park in March.
