Sam Kerr scores after 634-day absence while Manchester United maul Lionesses
Champions Chelsea hold off Aston Villa in 3-1 away win
Van Egmond goal gives Leicester victory over Liverpool
Sam Kerr scored on her first Chelsea appearance for 20 months as the champions maintained their perfect start to the Women’s Super League season with a 3-1 win away to Aston Villa.
The Australia international scrambled the ball home in stoppage time after being sent on as a substitute in the second half, as Sonia Bompastor’s side were made to work for their victory by a dogged home performance at Villa Park. Aggie Beever-Jones had earlier given Chelsea the lead with her second of the season before Ebony Salmon levelled. A Missy Bo Kearns own goal made it 2-1 before Kerr capped her comeback from an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
