CHELSEA boss Sonia Bompastor knows there is plenty of work still to do as her side took the first step in their quest for an historic quadruple by winning the Women’s League Cup.

Mayra Ramirez’s early opener and Yui Hasegawa’s own goal gave the Blues a 2-1 win at Pride Park and earned Bompastor’s first trophy in charge.

Victory saw her side draw first blood in their run of four successive matches against City, with a two-legged Champions League quarter-final and Women’s Super League match to come in the next 12 days.
