Wales star Jess Fishlock retires from international football

Wales' all time record goalscorer Jess Fishlock has announced she'll be retiring from international football.

The midfielder, who has score 48 goals for her country, will play her last international match against Australia in Cardiff on 25 October.

"After 19 years and the most incredible journey of proudly representing my country, I have made the decision that the match against Australia will be my last one in the red of Cymru," she said.

"From kicking my first ball with my brothers in Llanrumney, football has been in my blood.

"When I had my debut against Switzerland in Kloten in 2006, never did I imagine I would have the honour of representing my Cymru more than 150 times. Every minute was a pleasure, a privilege, and an honour."
