Arsenal Women 4-0 FC Okzheptes

Arsenal Women ran out easy winners against Kazakhstani outfit FC Okzheptes in Champions League qualifying on Wednesday. The scoring was opened and closed by two debutants as Mana Iwabuchi and Nikita Parris opened their Arsenal accounts.

A Kim Little penalty made it 2-0 after Iwabuchi opened the scoring early in the first half. Beth Mead made it three before Parris capitalised on some poor defending to notch on her debut.

Arsenal will now face the winners of PSV Eindhoven v Lokomotiv Moscow in the next round.


Juventus 12-0 Kamenica Sasa

Juventus ran riot against Macedonian side Kamenica Sasa, with Arianna Caruso, Cristiana Girelli and Andrea Stašková all hitting hat-tricks in a sensational 12-0 demolition.


Levante 2-1 Celtic

Celtic’s first ever Women’s Champions League outing ended in defeat to Levante in Trondheim.

Goals from Sandie Rose Toletti and Alba Maria Redondo Ferrer either side of half-time gave the Spanish side a commanding lead, before Caitlin Mary Hayes pulled one back for Celtic later in the second half.

CSKA Moscow 1-1 Swansea City

Swansea City’s first foray into the Champions League looked to be ending in disappointment when Nevena Damjanović finally broke the deadlock in the 89th minute for CSKA.

But a dramatic late equaliser from Chloe Chivers earned the Swans a memorable draw.
