Vera Pauw claims she was undermined and disrespected by the FAI during the Women's World Cup and says the decision not to renew her contract as Ireland manager was based on a "flawed" post-World Cup review with an outcome that was "pre-determined".

Commenting for the first time since her four-year spell in charge of Ireland came to an end earlier this week, Pauw's explosive statement says "trust broke down" between her and certain people within the FAI. This, Pauw claims, made her work with the Irish team "very challenging".
