Rachel Corsie, left, says Shelley Kerr and her backroom team have apologised

Scotland head coach Shelley Kerr and her backroom team have apologised after a post-World Cup meeting left players in tears, says captain Rachel Corsie.

Kerr told BBC Scotland she and her coaching team "had a few drinks" with dinner before the debrief the day after Scotland were knocked out.

Some players considered their Scotland futures after the meeting but Corsie says the players are fully behind Kerr.

"It is something that has been well received," she told BBC Scotland.

"We're all in this together. I think, as players, we've also reflected as well and there's things we would all have done differently."

It is understood both sides had their say at a gathering on Monday, with Scottish FA chief executive Ian Maxwell also in attendance.

Earlier this month, Kerr admitted she had regrets about the way the meeting was handled after a painful exit from the tournament. However, she denied suggestions that too much alcohol had been taken.

On their World Cup debut, the Scots lost to England and Japan before conceding three goals in the final 16 minutes to draw 3-3 with Argentina when victory would have earned a last-16 place.

Scotland begin their Euro qualifying campaign against Cyprus on Friday.

'Players felt timing of meeting a mistake' - analysis

Former Scotland striker Julie Fleeting on Sportsound

The timing of the meeting, in terms of how the players were feeling after the Argentina game, was a mistake. I know the players felt it wasn't the appropriate time for the staff to have the meeting.

I think what Shelley was going to say to the players, she would have said anyway. The fact alcohol was taken has just added to it.

Shelley is still a fantastic coach. She got us to our first World Cup and our national team are lucky to have her. I hope they know that.
