Chelsea are on course to take a fourth successive Women's Super League title following a fine campaign, but success in the Champions League is the only major honour that still evades boss Hayes.

However, the Blues will now be the favourites to reach the last four after Reiten picked up Erin Cuthbert's fantastic assist and curled an effort past Lyon goalkeeper Christiane Endler in the first half.

Moments later, the rampant visitors almost doubled their lead when James' effort bounced off the post.

Lyon dominated the second period, and came close to an equaliser when Chelsea failed to clear their lines and Delphine Cascarino's shot struck the woodwork.

Chelsea had several chances to put the game, and possibly the tie to bed, but they failed to strike a decisive second.

However, the English champions survived three minutes of stoppage time to see out a pivotal victory in France.

Cristiano Ronaldo says he is better man now after 'bad phase' at Manchester United

Indo – Cristiano Ronaldo mengatakan dia pria yang lebih baik sekarang setelah 'fase buruk' di Manchester United

Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo: "I have no problem saying I had a bad phase of my career, but there's no time for regrets. Life goes on and, doing well or not, it was part of my growth. When we are at the top of the mountain, we often cannot see what is below"

The 38-year-old was named in Martinez's first squad for the Euro 2024 qualifiers to seemingly clear up any confusion over his international future following the 2022 World Cup.

Former boss Fernando Santos dropped Ronaldo to the bench during the knockout stage in Qatar and, as the forward left the pitch in tears after Portugal were eliminated by Morocco in the quarter-finals, many questioned whether he would represent his country again.

But the arrival of Martinez appears to be a welcome boost for Ronaldo, who now has the chance to add to his record tally of 118 international goals. "He is very important for the team. I do not look at the age," Martinez said last week.
