PARIS: Barcelona and Bayern Munich both cruised to comfortable wins on Thursday to book their tickets for the knockout stage of the Women’s Champions League.

Bayern Munich overcame some stubborn early resistance at Swedish side Rosengard to ease to a comprehensive 4-0 win. A looping header from Brazilian defender Tainara gave them the lead in the 38th minute.

Sydney Lohmann doubled the lead in the 66th minute with Georgia Stanway and Julia Landenberger following up to complete a comfortable win.

Irene Paredes gave Barcelona an early lead in Lisbon before Claudia Pina doubled it just before the break. Aitana Bonmati and Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic put Barca 4-0 up but Benfica finally began to bare their teeth when Jessica Silva and Cloe Lacasse both scored.
