Aussie soccer star Sam Kerr sends Chelsea a step closer to the Women's Champions League quarter-finals with a crucial second-half goal

Chelsea Women edged closer to a place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a 1-0 victory over Servette, thanks to Matildas striker Sam Kerr.

Kerr's goal in the 67th minute was enough to secure a vital win which leaves them top of Group A, with just a point required from their final two fixtures against Juventus and Wolfsburg to secure their place in the quarter-finals.

This was not the vintage, ruthless and clinical Chelsea we saw in Geneva last week. The Blues thrashed their opponents 7-0 in the reverse fixture and were 6-0 up at half-time.
