Sam Kerr has played her first minutes for Chelsea since her injury-ravaged Women's World Cup, coming off the bench in a dramatic 1-1 draw with Manchester City.

Matildas superstar Kerr entered the fray after half-time, with Chelsea trailing 1-0 but City down to 10 players, including Australians Mary Fowler and Alanna Kennedy.
