Kerr and Fran Kirby were at their dynamic best to earn Chelsea their second straight league cup and a fourth trophy since the Australian captain arrived in November 2019.

It was a dream start for Kerr who opened the scoring in the second minute. Guro Reiten's through ball found Kirby who squared it across the face of goal for Kerr to finish from close range.

By the 10th minute, Kerr would add a second, Kirby once again the provider. A cool, low finish past Sophie Baggaley warranted a trademark back flip celebration from the Westfield Matilda.

Kirby would add her name to the scoresheet in the 28th and 38th minute to ensure the Blues entered half time with a 4-0 lead.
