Chelsea's Rytting Kaneryd scores wonder goal in 5-2 WSL win over Spurs

LONDON : Chelsea's Johanna Rytting Kaneryd crowned an electric display with two goals, including a world-class effort, as they beat Tottenham Hotspur 5-2 to go second in the Women's Super League on Sunday, with a game in hand over leaders Manchester City.
