Chelsea cruised into the quarter-finals of the Champions League with two games to spare at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night. A comfortable 3-0 win for last year’s semi-finalists, thanks to goals from Lucy Bronze, Wieke Kaptein and Ève Périsset, saw them claim an impressive 11th victory in a row.
It is safe to say that it has been a dream start to the season for Chelsea, who have a perfect record in all competitions and are leading the WSL and Champions League Group B. Sonia Bompastor was delighted by her side’s early progression, which eases the pressure on the run-in to the winter break.
