Wales captain Ashley Williams says he considered retiring from international soccer after the country's failure to qualify for this summer's World Cup finals in Russia.
The 33-year-old centerback played in October's 1-0 defeat to Ireland in the qualifiers which left Wales third in Group D and ended its World Cup hopes.
"It was just so disappointing missing out that I had to think about retirement," Williams told reporters at the China Cup in Nanning.
