Before the Westfield Matildas headed into camp for their upcoming friendlies against Germany and the Netherlands, they were once again starring at club level.
England
Sam Kerr is now joint top of the golden boot standings after her first half hat trick propelled Chelsea to a 6-0 win over Birmingham City.
Erin Cuthbert’s strike was parried away by Hannah Hampton. Kerr was quickest to react and managed to score from the impossible angle.
Her fast reaction times paid off once again for the second goal. This time a Cuthbert cross found Pernille Harder who headed it onto the crossbar; Kerr was able to finish off the job with a header from close range.
Kerr added a third in injury time of the first half. Cuthbert was once again the provider, this time with a pinpoint free kick with the Australian captain timing her run well and heading home to complete her second hat trick in the league.
A brace to Fran Kirby and a goal to Guro Reiten rounded out the win for the Blues.

The Gunners were 4-0 winners over Bristol with Foord offering plenty in the attacking third. Australian 'keeper Lydia Williams kept a clean sheet. Recent Westfield Matildas call up Ella Mastrantonio entered the match in the 65th minute.
