Chelsea's women's team remains unbeaten in all competitions, sitting top of the Women's Super League alongside Manchester City after seven games and securing two wins and one draw in their first three Women's Champions League matches. A 2-0 victory over Roma was achieved with goals from substitute Ellie Carpenter and defender Kadeisha Buchanan, maintaining a clean sheet and highlighting improved defensive solidity under manager Sonia Bompastor.
Bompastor emphasized the importance of defensive stability and squad rotation, noting the team's ability to adapt tactically and find different ways to win. Captain Erin Cuthbert said the squad has built strong momentum, with the quality now matching their potential after a transitional period following the departure of key players and the end of Emma Hayes' 12-year tenure.
