Overview
- Chelsea beat Paris FC 4-0 at Stamford Bridge, with goals from Sandy Baltimore (penalty), Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, Alyssa Thompson and Erin Cuthbert.
- The opener came via a VAR-reviewed foul on Sjoeke Nüsken that referee Michalina Diakow awarded after a monitor check, and Baltimore converted from the spot.
- Thompson, signed from Angel City, assisted Rytting Kaneryd’s header and then turned in Keira Walsh’s cross for her first Chelsea goal in the Champions League.
- The result follows an opening 1-1 draw at FC Twente and lifts Chelsea up the early standings in the new 18-team Swiss-style league phase.
- The match was broadcast on Disney+ in the UK, with UWCL coverage carried in the U.S. by Paramount+/CBS Sports.
