LONDON - Holders Barcelona battled into the final of the women's Champions League, overturning a first-leg 1-0 deficit to beat Emma Hayes's 10-woman Chelsea 2-0 in the second leg at a sold-out Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

It was the second season in a row that Barca had beaten Chelsea 2-1 in the semi-final and was a blow to home coach Hayes who is leaving Chelsea to manage the U.S. national team after 14 years in charge.
