Lamouchi resigns as Ivory Coast coach

Sabri Lamouchi has resigned as Ivory Coast coach after defeat to Greece ended their World Cup run.

Following the result, Lamouchi announced his decision to step down.

The 42-year-old Frenchman told FIFA.com: "My contract comes to an end at this World Cup and there will be no epilogue and you can understand well as to why.

"It is logical as we did not do well at last year's Africa Cup of Nations or at the World Cup finals."
