For Leicester City supporters, this felt like a painfully familiar ending.
On a scorching afternoon at The Valley, with a place in the Women's Super League on the line, Leicester's season ended in the cruellest fashion possible.
Watched by a club-record crowd of 3,979 and a live television audience on both BBC and Sky Sports, the Foxes were beaten on penalties by Charlton Athletic after 120 goalless minutes, confirming relegation after five years in the top flight.
The result was difficult enough to take but the manner of it was even harder.
