In a fitting finale to her Chelsea career, Sam Kerr etched her name into the club's history books one last time. The Australian superstar scored her 116th goal for the Blues in what was her final appearance, powering Chelsea to a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
That goal wasn't just a winner—it was a milestone. Kerr now sits alongside Fran Kirby as Chelsea's joint all-time top goalscorer, a testament to her incredible impact since arriving in London. The moment carried extra weight as it came on her farewell match, giving manager Sonia Bompastor's side a crucial three points in front of the home faithful.
The match itself was a tense, tactical affair typical of top-tier women's football. Both sides created chances, but it was Kerr's clinical finish that proved the difference, ensuring she left the pitch with both a record and a victory. For Chelsea fans, it was a bittersweet afternoon—celebrating a legend's achievement while saying goodbye to one of the game's greats.
