Many, many congratulations to Chelsea. In two weeks' time, they'll face Barcelona for the trophy. Thanks for your company for this afternoon's utter thriller.

Hayes is shaking hands with every single member of the Bayern camp. What a result. Chelsea are into the Women's Champions League final - the first English team since Arsenal in 2007, when it was still the UEFA Cup.

Fran Kirby is wreathed in smiles, Pernille Harder looks so blase, and Emma Hayes is still sobbing!

GOAL! Chelsea are THROUGH. The Bayern corner pings across the box, Carter gets it out, and Fran Kirby FINISHES IT BY SLOTTING HOME INTO AN EMPTY NET.

CLOSE! And that's Asseyi with the header downwards at the back post and it takes a deflection off Eriksson's thigh. One last chance.
