"Of course, I prefer to play more minutes. When you come on for 20 minutes, it's a bit hectic, there are a lot of subs, and it can be a bit wishy-washy," Kerr told Disney+."
"I feel like today was good. I had a few chances. I'm just happy to be back out here playing in the Champions League again with an amazing team. I'm relishing every moment."
"Today was a good set, right? Getting some good minutes in the national team was good. I'm definitely fit enough, it's just about getting miles in the legs now. I'm ready to go."
Sam Kerr returned to the starting lineup and scored twice as Chelsea defeated St. Polten 6-0 in the Champions League. It marked her first competitive start for Chelsea in 692 days. Catarina Macario also scored a double, Wieke Kaptein opened the scoring and a Lisa Ebert own-goal completed the rout. Kerr sustained an ACL injury in January last year and has been slowly reintegrated, making seven WSL appearances off the bench this season. Kerr finished with team-highs for shots (11), shots on target (5) and touches in the opposition box (18). Chelsea moved to second in the group standings.
