Jess Fishlock made her 166th and final appearence for Wales during an emotional farewell to international football.

Wales were defeated 2-1 by Australia at the Cardiff City Stadium.

She played nearly the whole match but an 85th Australian winner meant she was on the losing side.

While the game ended in defeat, the real significance of the game will be that Fishlock will now longer represent the country she has done for such a significant amount of time.

She wore the captain's armband, with a guard of honour and a chance to say goodbye to over 11,000 in attendance when she was substituted.
