Chelsea 3-0 Manchester City (Agg: 3-2): Mayra Ramirez the match-winner as The Blues set up Barcelona semi-final

Chelsea showed their class to reach the UEFA Women's Champions League semi-finals following a superb 3-0 win over Manchester City at Stamford Bridge.

The odds looked to be stacked against The Blues following a 2-0 first-leg defeat to Manchester City, but three first-half goals from Sandy Baltimore, Nathalie Bjorn and Mayra Ramirez turned the tie on its head.

Up next is a third consecutive semi-final meeting with Barcelona, who obliterated Wolfsburg with a 10-2 aggregate victory to reach the last four.

They will be formidable familiar foes for The Blues in their quest to win the quadruple.

Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor explained she always had the belief that her side could turn things around, and reflected on 'a special night' at Stamford Bridge.

She told TNT Sports: "What a special night in front of our fans at Stamford Bridge. After the first leg I knew we could do it. It's something to say and something to turn words into action. I'm so proud of my players. We deserved to go through."

As a player and manager, in football when you are alive, everything can be possible. I told my players we are having a great season. Tonight is a night to create memories and the girls did that. They put it all out there."

When asked if it was her best win in charge, she continued: "I had some good ones, but this is a special one for sure. This is why football is magic. This is why I really love football.

"We started the game strong, we scored three goals in 45 minutes. My plan was wrong, I told them we had 90 minutes, but we did that in the first half. If we play that way, we are a really good team."

When quizzed about Chelsea's hopes of winning the competition, she added: "We have all the quality to go all the way. They will be tough games against Barcelona, but tonight is time for us to enjoy. We will see later how we can focus on going into the semi-final."

Millie Bright reflected on a superb night for Chelsea, and described it as "a true Chelsea performance."

She told TNT Sports: "We were never in doubt. We had full confidence in ourselves. We could have had way more than three goals. Unbelievable mentality and desire to come back. A true Chelsea performance.

When asked about finally beating Barcelona in what will be the third consecutive semi-final meeting between the two sides, she added: "We are a new team, we are on a new journey, we are in a new era. Bring it on."

Former Chelsea and England star Karen Carney believes there will be growing confidence in the dressing room of achieving a quadruple.

She told TNT Sports: "That team will be in there saying: we want that quadruple, and we're not going to stop.

"Lucy Bronze's mind will be ticking: 'quadruple, quadruple.' You can see it now and they're a train and it's very hard to stop them."

Chelsea progress into the UEFA Women's Champions League semi-finals with a 3-0 win over Manchester City at Stamford Bridge.

All three goals came in the first half, as goals from Sandy Baltimore, Natalie Bjorn and Mayra Ramirez ensured The Blues set up a tantalising last-four clash with Barcelona.

It's a crushing blow for Nick Cushing's side, who held a 2-0 first-leg advantage thanks to Vivianne Miedema's brace.

City had their moments on the night, but a debilitating injury list has taken its toll on Cushing's team, who lacked the cutting thrust upfront which an injured Khadija Shaw would have surely provided.

Sonia Bompastor's side are still on the road to Lisbon, while a troubling campaign for City reaches another low point with this defeat.

CHELSEA 3-0 MANCHESTER CITY

Keira Walsh is replaced by Oriane Jean-François in the closing stages.

Park will undoubtedly be an important player between now and the end of the season for City.

She's looked lively since coming on, and gives Nick Cushing's side some much-needed creativity amid their depleted ranks.

The Swede has been a constant threat throughout the match, and deserves a goal for her efforts.

However, it doesn't come here though, as her left-footed attempt sails over the bar.

Cuthbert's left-footed strike hits the bar, as the chances keep on coming here at Stamford Bridge!

She's been superb again tonight.

I'd be surprised if there are no more goals tonight.

Rytting Kaneryd weaves her way into the box and sees her subsequent strike saved by the feet of Kheating.

That was not far away at all from the prolific Dutchwoman, whose right-footed shot sails just past the far post.

A reminder that this tie is still very much on a knife edge!

Ramirez exits proceedings to be replaced by Beever-Jones for Chelsea's first change of the night.

At present, the Colombian's goal is what separates the two teams on aggregate.

Leila Ouahabi eyes the spectacular with a long-range effort which sails harmlessly over the bar.

It sums up City's night so far here in west London.

A second City change, as City bring on Jess Park for Jill Roord.

The visitors need that additional creativity which Park could provide.

Johanna Rytting Kaneryd drives her way forward towards the City goal and unleashes an effort from distance, which is parried away by Keating.

Not long afterwards, the City shot-stopper is called into action again to deny Cuthbert.

Cheers from the Chelsea fans, as Miedema tees up Fowler from the subsequent set-piece, which goes straight into the wall.

A waste of a promising opening for City.

Baltimore is shown a yellow for her challenge on Kerolin on the edge of the box.

The Brazilian receives treatment in a brief stoppage of play.

Aleixandri is shown a yellow card for a push on Ramirez for the first booking of the game.
