Chelsea opened their Women's Champions League campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Austria Wien at Plough Lane thanks to Wieke Kaptein's early wonder strike. However, the narrow win was overshadowed by an early injury concern for Keira Walsh, who was forced off after just 20 minutes.

Chelsea head coach Sonia Bompastor has cautioned her squad against underestimating Austria Vienna ahead of Wednesday's European opener. With the Austrian champions arriving in London as fearless debutants playing without pressure, the French manager insisted that the Blues must execute their tactical plan flawlessly to secure vital points at home.
