Thanks for your company this evening, as Man City and Chelsea both put themselves in strong positions in their respective Women's Champions League semi-finals.

Do join us again next Wednesday for the second legs. Good night!

Just to remind you, we already know the draw for the semi-finals. Though neither Chelsea or Man City will be looking that far ahead yet, despite both winning 2-0 tonight, there's nothing stopping us, so here goes:

Semi-final draw

• Montpellier or Chelsea Ladies v Wolfsburg or Slavia Prague
• Manchester City Women or Linkopings v Olympique Lyonnais or Barcelona

All four quarter-finals will conclude with the second legs next Wednesday, 28 March.

The semi-finals will take place on 21/22 & 28/29 April.

The Women's Champions League quarter-finals continue tomorrow, with Wolfsburg v Slavia Praha and holders Lyon v Barcelona.

BBC World Service's Sarah Mulkerrins has been taking a look at Barcelona, as they bid to halt Lyon's charge towards May's final in Kiev.

This result puts Chelsea firmly in the driving seat ahead of next Wednesday's second leg at Kingsmeadow.

What a result for Chelsea away from home!

"Done" declares Emma Hayes, as she and her technical team celebrate the final whistle.

We're playing three minutes of stoppage time and Chelsea have a 2-0 lead to take back to London as it stands.

They've ridden their luck at times tonight but this'll go down as a terrific result for Chelsea if it stays like this.

A minute plus stoppage time remains.

Chelsea's third and final change sees Claire Rafferty come on Fran Kirby, in a defensive move from Emma Hayes.

As they enter the final 10 minutes, Chelsea bring on Eni Aluko for Ramona Bachmann.

It's been a fairly even first leg - the French side have hit the post twice - but this scoreline now for Chelsea is invaluable. Montpellier have it all to do.

Erin Cuthbert almost doubles Chelsea's lead seconds after coming on, but she can't quite divert Fran Kirby's square ball goalwards. The ball was just fractionally behind the on-rushing Scotland international.

Chelsea's Drew Spence comes off. She's run and run and run, all night. On comes Scotland's Erin Cuthbert.

It seems as though Chelsea might now switch to a 4-5-1 formation. There are 18 minutes left in France.

For the second time tonight, Montpellier hit the post!

This time Denmark's Katrine Veje drives a shot inches away from the bottom corner.

Chelsea keeper Hedvig Lindahl looked beaten.

Now it's the French side's turn to put on the pressure.

Chelsea have 23 minutes left to take this lead back to London next Wednesday.

But straight down the other end, the French side go close, as Laetitia Tonazzi heads wide.

Chelsea are dominant now, but Ramona Bachmann's effort is blocked away for a corner.

"Hopefully this was a good enough performance to get us through to the semi-finals, but we have a tough game next Wednesday," midfielder Tessel Middag tells Manchester City's Facebook page.

"We said at the start of the game we wanted a clean sheet, and we did get one."

Chelsea almost have a second, but Ramona Bachmann hits the post! It was a tight angle for the Swiss star, having taken the ball round the keeper.

From the rebound, wing-back Hannah Blundell's effort is blocked.

Sofia Jakobsson has a chance to level for Montpellier, but it's an important close-range stop from Chelsea keeper Hedvig Lindahl.
