Sam Kerr is talking through the wonder goal that helped Chelsea seal a third successive Women’s Super League title.
The striker had predicted to team-mate Erin Cuthbert she would score a ‘worldie’ the day before, and she did not disappoint. A clearance from Manchester United goalkeeper Mary Earps was headed towards Kerr, who had her back to goal, 25 yards out.

‘I don't know why I ever thought to do that,’ Kerr laughs. ‘I think the commentating made it even better because the way she said “it's so Sam Kerr”, I just laughed because I thought “that is so me”.
