Chelsea Ladies will play two-time winners Wolfsburg in the last 16 of the Women’s Champions League.

The Blues, managed by Emma Hayes (pictured), defeated Glasgow City over two legs to reach this stage.

The first leg will take place on either 11 or 12 November, with the second leg the following week.

Chelsea are in the competition for the first time and were unseeded in the draw.

By contrast, Wolfsburg won the Champions League in 2013 and 2014 and four of their players were in Germany’s Women’s World Cup squad this summer.
