Steve Clarke has resigned as head coach following Scotland's exit from the World Cup.

A statement from the Scottish FA was released just moments after Croatia's win over Ghana on Saturday, which sealed Scotland's fate.

The Scots defeated Haiti 1-0 in their opening match in Boston, before losing 1-0 to Morocco and then being beaten 3-0 by Brazil in Miami.

"The most emotional part of this goodbye is for my players, without whom we wouldn't have had any of the memories that we've accumulated from 2019 until now," Clarke said in a letter to supporters.

"They deserve all the praise and adulation that they receive and it was truly an honour to be called their Gaffer.

"Thanks for having me and good luck to my successor."
