Sonia Bompastor, the Chelsea head coach, called for goalline technology to be brought into the Women’s Super League next season after Sam Kerr was controversially denied a hat-trick in a 4-1 victory at Everton.
The Chelsea and Australia striker scored with two clinical low finishes – either side of a long-range drive from Everton’s Yuka Momiki – to put Chelsea 2-1 up, and replays showed that Kerr should have been awarded a third goal, when her header bounced on to the post and rolled over the line before being flicked away by the Everton goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan.
