      Chelsea put one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals with a 3-0 win over Rosengard in the first leg of their last-16 tie at Kingsmeadow.

      Fran Kirby, Ramona Bachmann and Gilly Flaherty were all on target as the Londoners proved too strong for their Swedish visitors.

      England striker Kirby rewarded Chelsea for a bright start by opening the scoring with a left-foot shot after 33 minutes and Bachmann doubled the lead against her former club after the hour.

      Flaherty made certain of victory 17 minutes from time by firing home after a Kirby effort was blocked.

      Elsewhere in the tournament, reigning champions Lyon cruised to a 7-0 victory over Kazakh outfit BIIK Kazygurt, while Barcelona enjoyed a 6-0 victory at Gintra Universitetas.
