China defender Zhang backtracks on retirement claim

Tianjin, Mar 25 (UNI) China's veteran defender Zhang Linpeng has changed his decision to retire from international football, choosing to stay with the Chinese side that is struggling in its FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.
The 34-year-old, who claimed he was considering retirement from the national team after they were held to a 2-2 draw at Singapore last Thursday in the World Cup qualifier, is now with the Chinese side in Tianjin to prepare for the two sides' rematch on Tuesday.
"I think it's time for me to call it a day on my international career," he said in despondency after the Singapore game, claiming the result was unacceptable.
