Poor Sakura, she just has no luck does she, not with Sasuke or the readers haha. But I've kinda grown to respect her as a character. At least in terms of combat prowess if anything. Although she wasn't a big help, she was the only one who was able to provide some level of assistance and actual contribution during the fight, without having to rely on an @$$pull powerup. The same cannot be said for any of her other team mates.

And since I'm guessing the actual fight will be only a few chapters, followed by another four chapters of flashbacks and therapy talk from Naruto, it doesn't look like we'll have much time for an actual conclusive epilogue to the story. It seems as if the final chapter will end with Naruto and Sasuke bumping fists after their fight or something.
