The FAI have apologised for any offence caused for a song sung in the dressing room after last night's win over Scotland.
Footage on social media last night appeared to show members of the Girls in Green team singing "ooh ah up the 'Ra" in the aftermath of their qualification for the World Cup.
In response, the FAI have released a statement containing an apology from boss Vera Pauw.
The FAI's statement read:
"The Football Association of Ireland and the Republic of Ireland Ireland Women’s National Team Manager Vera Pauw apologise for any offence caused by a song sung by players in the Ireland dressing room after the FIFA Women's World Cup Qualifying Play-off win over Scotland at Hampden Park on Tuesday night.
