Bayern Munich defeats Rosengard (1-0) in the quarter finals.

Bayern Munich forward Lea Schueller scored the only goal as the German side beats Sweden's FC Rosengard 1-0 in the second leg of its women's Champions League quarter-final on Thursday to complete a 4-0 aggregate victory.

The result in Malmo stretched Frauen-Bundesliga leader Bayern's winning streak in all competitions to 26 matches.

Germany international Schueller scored in the 22nd minute, heading in defender Carolin Simon's cross from the left after a slick passing move by the visitors.

 

In the semi-finals, Bayern will face English side Chelsea, who secured a 3-0 victory over VfL Wolfsburg on Wednesday to complete a 5-1 aggregate win.

Olympique Lyonnais will take on Paris St Germain in its rescheduled quarter-final second leg on April 18 after a string of COVID-19 cases within the Lyon squad. The winner will meet Barcelona in the semi-finals.
