Chelsea scored early in each half on the way to a 3-1 victory over Montpellier, watched by a crowd of just over 3,000.
Fran Kirby gave the Blues the perfect start, taking advantage of a mistake to run clear and finish.
A Montpellier counter-attack saw former Chelsea player Sofia Jakobson spectacularly lobs Hedvig Lindahl to make it 1-1.
Kirby picked out Ramona Bachmann who curled home to restore the hosts’ lead, before Ji So-Yun won a penalty which Kirby fired into the bottom corner.

Manchester City will again play Lyon in the Champions League semi-finals, after easing to victory away to Sweden’s Linkopings.
Two up from the home leg, Nick Cushing’s side had the tie sewn up by the break by which time they led 4-0 on the night.
Jane Ross headed City in front and Georgia Stanway then fired home twice from almost the same spot, with Jen Beattie then nodding home a corner.
Marija Banusic replied twice for the hosts, the second from a penalty, after which Izzy Christiansen volleyed in Nikita Parris’s cross and Tove Almqvist got a third for Linkopings.
Le Sommer sends Lyon into semis
Barcelona had over 12,000 inside the Mini Estadi for the visit of Lyon but the holders not only successfully defended a 2-1 first-leg advantage but scored to win 3-1 0verall.
An effort by Eugenie le Sommer just after the hour mark was judged to have crossed the line before being cleared and Lyon were on their way to a tournament record ninth semi-final.
Slavia hold Wolfsburg
Five down from the away match, Slavia Praha reduced the arrears with a Petra Divišová goal after half an hour.
Ewa Pajor levelled midway through the second half, for a 6-1 aggregate result.
