Benfica 0-5 Chelsea

70 min: Chelsea do not look content with 5-0 here. They’re still on the front foot looking for more goals. The introduction of Charles and Cuthbert has given them more energy. As if they needed it…

74 min: How far can Chelsea go in Europe? They are clearly several levels above Benfica, but the likes of Lyon and Wolfsburg remain tough, tough challenges for Emma Hayes’ side.

Don’t think this game is going to tell us much about how they will fare against the elite sides.

75 min: Oh dear. Ucheibe goes in over the top of the ball on Erin Cuthbert. It’s a free-kick to Chelsea. Ucheibe has already been booked.

76 min: RED CARD! Yep, Ucheibe is correctly shown a second yellow card. Benfica down to ten.

Goteborg 1-1 Manchester City

74 min: City entering the last 15 minutes against Goteborg and still they are level. Janine Beckie is set up by Sam Mewis but her effort fizzes just wide of the post.
