Sandy Baltimore scored early in the all-England quarterfinal at Stamford Bridge before Nathalie Björn and Mayra Ramírez netted in a five-minute span to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first leg and set up a last-four matchup against defending champion Barcelona.

Chelsea pulled off a stunning comeback to beat Manchester City 3-0 in the women's Champions League quarter-finals on Thursday, overturning a two-goal first-leg deficit to secure a place in the last four with a 3-2 aggregate victory.

For a third year running, Chelsea will face champions Barcelona in the semi-finals. It was Barcelona who hammered Chelsea 4-0 in their first ever final in 2021 and, while they ran them close in the past two seasons, they are opponents against whom they have come up short time after time.
