Steve Clarke has resigned as Scotland head coach following their exit from the World Cup had been confirmed.

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

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

"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."
