And behind the victory were both Swedes and Swedish acquaintances.

Already in the seventh minute, Johanna Rytting Kaneryd played forward Aggie Beever-Jones, who shot from a distance. A few minutes later, former Hammarby loanee Maika Hamano didn't want to be outdone and scored Chelsea's second goal of the evening with a long shot.

The match ultimately ended 3–1, after Norwegian Guro Reiten put the finishing touches on with a penalty.

Zecira Musovic stood in goal the entire match, and Rytting Kaneryd was substituted out in the 60th minute.

Earlier in the evening, Celtic, with Swedish coach Elena Sadiku, had nothing to offer in the away match against Real Madrid.

The Spanish giant club won 4–0 through goals by Caroline Weir, Signe Bruun, Caroline Møller, and Linda Caicedo.

Swedish national team player Filippa Angeldal started in Real Madrid and was substituted out in the second half.
