Sam Kerr's Chelsea have joined the band of "Invincibles" in English soccer after completing their triumphant Women's Super League season unbeaten - even without the services of their superstar striker.
At the end of a week in which Kerr and partner Kristie Mewis announced the birth of their first child, the injured Matildas captain was absent from the club's celebratory final league match of the season on Saturday as they capped their historic campaign with a 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.
Without talismanic striker Kerr, unable to play a single minute of their campaign while battling back from an ACL injury, Chelsea's achievement, under manager Sonia Bompastor, of completing the season without a defeat in 22 matches was an extraordinary, unprecedented one.
