UWCL Round-up: Hacken stun Madrid; Chelsea cruise; Bayern edge PSG; Roma win

On an exciting night of Women's Champions League action as Matchday 2 of the group stage concluded, Bayern beat Paris Saint-Germain, Häcken stunned Real Madrid, Roma were too strong for Ajax, and Sam Kerr was the star of the show for Chelsea.

Here's what went down

Häcken 2-1 Real Madrid

Scorers: Kafaji 59′, Kosola 76′; Bruun 9′

Katariina Kosola's outstanding curling performance secured a memorable comeback victory for Häcken, who lead Group D by two points.

Signe Bruun gave the visitors an early lead after finishing off a rebound. As Las Blancas dominated, Olga Carmona also hit the post late in the first half.

But Häcken were a different team in the second half, with Rosa Kafaji equalizing after pouncing on a loose ball in the box and lashing in before Kosola sealed the victory in the 77th minute.

Chelsea 4-1 Paris FC

Scorers: Kerr 30′, 48′, 55′, Ingle 90+1; Greboval 38′

Chelsea defeated a spirited Paris side at Stamford Bridge thanks to Sam Kerr's hat-trick, which included a stunning lob.

The Australian international scored from close range after latching on to a clever Lauren James pass, before Théa Greboval leveled with a looping header from Gatane Thiney's corner.

Kerr restored Chelsea's lead three minutes after halftime with a fine cross from Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, before claiming the match ball in impressive fashion seven minutes later.

Late on, substitute Sophie Ingle scored a fourth goal, meeting an Ève Périsset corner with a crisp volley.

Paris Saint-Germain 0-1 Bayern

Scorers: Eriksson 21′

Magdalena Eriksson's close-range finish was enough for Bayern to secure their first Group C victory and condemn Paris to consecutive defeats.

Eriksson prodded in Glóds Viggósdóttir's looping header following a set piece midway through the first half, her second Bayern goal in as many games.

Tabitha Chawinga came closest for the hosts, but Bayern keeper Maria-Luisa Grohs was equal to the low strike.

Roma 3-0 Ajax

Scorers: Giacinti 5′, 14′, Giugliano 47′

Valentina Giacinti scored twice in the first 14 minutes to propel Roma to the top of Group C.

The Roma forward broke the deadlock after only five minutes, firing in first time from a tight angle, and doubled the lead nine minutes later, capitalizing on defensive uncertainty.

Ajax's chances of a comeback were effectively ended by Manuela Giugliano's 47th-minute volley, though visiting substitute Lotte Keukelaar did shoot against the crossbar in their best moment.
