00:02A standout quarter-final first leg tie as two London Giants meet in the UEFA Women's Champions League for the
00:09first time.
00:10Arsenal make three changes from their 5-0 win in the WSL at the weekend, while Chelsea make five alterations
00:17after dropping points in their domestic title defence.
00:23And Bronx setting Thompson away. Here's a chance for Chelsea.
00:30And the American finding room. Oh, it's come off the post.
00:34Well, Borba wasn't comfortable there, the Arsenal keeper.
00:41And what about the bounce here for James? It's going to run for Lauren James. Brilliant skill. Bang off the
00:48post.
00:50But twice Chelsea striking the woodwork in the opening ten minutes.
00:56Looks for the free kick to be taken. What will McCabe go for here? The little clip in. Brilliant for
01:01Arsenal.
01:02Right on the money. It's Stina Blaxdenius.
01:06And after all of Chelsea's pressure, it's the reigning champions who strike first.
01:15Me dangerous when she drifts inside like that.
01:19Kelly!
01:24A first Champions League goal in an Arsenal shirt for Chloe Kelly.
01:34Baltimore.
01:35Baltimore. That's not a bad ball at all. Where will that bounce?
01:38In for Chelsea. That's where it will bounce.
01:44But it won't count.
01:46The on-field decision is a foul and a free kick to Arsenal.
01:53In from Baltimore.
01:55Spent an age in the air. Nuskan had a swipe.
02:00James looking to go on. It's superb!
02:05That's the magic of Lauren James.
02:07To get Chelsea back in this tie.
02:11And when you need something special, she is the player to turn to.
02:18Oh, an excellent work on the ground from McCabe.
02:21To create something here for Arsenal.
02:24Rosso is terrific from Alessio Rosso.
02:30What a fine Arsenal goal to restore their two-goal advantage.
02:37The late Chelsea goal here would really change the complexion of this tie.
02:41In it goes from James.
02:43And can they force it home?
02:49Forces that ball over the line, but catching the keeper in the process as well.
02:54This one is not going to stand.
02:57The final score.
02:59Arsenal 3.
03:01Chelsea 1.
