Tottenham midfielder Drew Spence says it is a "very proud moment" to become the Women's Super League's all-time appearance record holder.

Spence, 34, started in Tottenham's WSL game against Birmingham City on Sunday, making her 217th appearance in the competition.

She overtook ex-Chelsea captain Millie Bright and could become the only outfield player at Tottenham to play 90 minutes in all of their WSL games this season.
