Chelsea Ladies and Hibernian Ladies 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 after Zsanett Jakabfi scored a hat-trick.

The Hungary international scooped the ball over Chelsea goalkeeper Hedvig Lindahl to open the scoring in the 12th minute before heading in the second while unmarked six minutes before the break. Jakabfi completed her hat-trick early in the second half from a counter-attack.

Miedema added Bayern's fourth in the 57th minute with Leupolz scoring the fifth six minutes later.
