Chelsea survive a nail-biting finish in Munich to eliminate Bayern on away goals and draw Rosengard, where Anita Asante awaits; Manchester City brush past St Polten home and away and get Lillestrom. Glasgow City’s exit is the story of the round – they clawed back a four-goal deficit against BIIK Kazygurt, hit the post with a late penalty and still went out on away goals, and Scotland will lose one of their two entries next season to Switzerland. Two records fall along the way: Anja Mittag becomes the first player to reach fifty goals in UEFA women’s club competition after ten games stuck on forty-nine, and holders Lyon become the first club to play eighty games in it, one clear of Arsenal.
