Four goals from Vivianne Miedema and a Kim Little strike saw Arsenal thrash Juventus 5-0.

Liverpool led 1-0 away to Bayern Munich before the hosts equalised for a draw played in temperatures up to 32C.

All the goals came in the first half as West Ham won 4-0 at Charlton Athletic, where Jane Ross, Brianna Visalli and Esmee de Graaf were on the scoresheet.
