A mistake led to James opening the scoring against her former club in a frantic first half which saw both sides have plenty of chances. United looked good value for an equaliser, but Chelsea were clinical and that proved to be the difference when Beever-Jones sealed the win with a close-range finish 14 minutes from time.
We have created a lot of chances, but we have to take them. That will, of course, be very important for a result tomorrow. With a win and then another win in the Champions League against Villarreal, things would look a lot better again. We have to show character. And I'm sure we'll be able to do that. We are motivated.
Barcelona will lock horns against Real Madrid on Sunday afternoon in the first El Clasico of the season, and the game is guaranteed to be a thriller.

The home advantage works out in Los Blancos' favour, but last season's record hands the Blaugrana a massive psychological edge.
