Second-half goals from Vivianne Miedema in the quarter-final first leg tie at the Joie Stadium handed the Blues a slight advantage heading into the deciding clash at Stamford Bridge next week,
Despite both teams creating openings before half-time, the scores remained goalless at the break with the encounter finely balanced.
Nick Cushing then introduced the Barclays Women’s Super League’s all-time top goalscorer at the interval and she stamped her authority on proceedings before the final whistle.
Miedema broke the deadlock when tucking into an empty net when latching onto Laia Aleixandri’s header which was tipped onto the bar and back into the box.
Chelsea then struck the woodwork themselves before Kerolin Nicoli, who was a constant threat throughout, teed up the Netherlands international who colly slotted home.
It means we have a two-goal lead heading into the second leg at Stamford Bridge on Thursday 27 March at 20:00 (UK).
