Chelsea Ladies and Hibernian Ladies both suffered heavy home defeats in the first leg of their round-of-32 games in the Women’s Champions League. In their first ever match at Stamford Bridge Chelsea were beaten 3-0 by last year’s finalists Wolfsburg as Zsanett Jakabfi scored a hat-trick. The Hungary international scooped the ball over the Chelsea goalkeeper, Hedvig Lindahl, to open the scoring in the 12th minute before heading in the second while unmarked six minutes before the break. Stefanie van der Gragt opened the scoring after six minutes before goals from Vivianne Miedema and Melanie Leupolz gave the German side a 3-0 lead at half-time. Miedema added Bayern’s fourth in the 57th minute with Leupolz scoring the fifth six minutes later.
