Hyypia may finish with Finns

LIVERPOOL defender Sami Hyypia is considering retiring from international football.

Following Finland’s failure to qualify for the World Cup finals, the 32-year-old centre half believes his chances of playing in a major finals have disappeared.

Hyypia made his 75th appearance for his country in the recent 3-0 defeat by the Czech Republic, where he played against former Liverpool team-mates Milan Baros and Vladimir Smicer.
