The Blues' Aussie striker came off the bench to score in stoppage time in her first appearance for 20 months to seal a hard-fought win at Villa Park.

Kerr admits she feared she might never reach the impressive milestone.

During her lengthy spell out she has welcomed baby son Jagger with partner Kristie Mewis, been cleared of racially aggravated harassment against a police officer and battled back from a serious knee injury.
