Chelsea moved to the top of their Women's Champions League group with a 3-1 victory over Twente on Thursday, while record eight-time winners Lyon triumphed against Wolfsburg.

Sonia Bompastor's Chelsea, still in pursuit of their first Champions League title after reaching four semi-finals and a final since 2018, secured their second win in Group B, following their victory over Real Madrid in the opener.

The reigning five-time English champions took an early lead through rising star Agnes Beever-Jones, who scored her first goal in the competition.

Japanese forward Maika Hamano then doubled their advantage with a long-range strike that caught Twente's goalkeeper, Olivia Clark, off her line.

Chelsea extended their lead in the second half with Guro Reiten converting a penalty, before Nikee van Dijk netted a consolation goal for Twente.
