Guro Reiten walks away from celebrating Wolfsburg players

Chelsea crashed out of the Women's Champions League after a 4-0 capitulation against Wolfsburg in their final group game.

Chelsea started the night top of Group A but eventually finished third behind Wolfsburg and Juventus.

All three sides finished equal on points but head-to-head results mean last year's beaten finalists go out.

Two goals each from Svenja Huth and Tabea Wassmuth saw Wolfsburg win the group in stunning fashion.
