Manchester City extended their perfect record in the UEFA Women’s Champions League group stage to a fifth matchday, while Arsenal made it four wins in five.

Group C: Bayern Munich 4-0 Juventus, Vålerenga 1-3 Arsenal

Arsenal won 3-1 away to Norwegian side Vålerenga, taking the matter of winning the group down to the last matchday next week.

Alessia Russo picked out the bottom corner to open the scoring on 25 minutes, Frida Leonhardsen Maanum getting the second before half-time from Caitlin Foord’s cut-back.

Foord was again the provider as Russo volleyed home her second approaching the hour mark, Stine Blackstenius was twice denied by the post before Tilde Lindwall netted a late consolation for the hosts.
