England trained in Chantilly on Sunday (19th June) ahead of their final Group B game against Slovakia.

England trained at their base in Chantilly on Sunday before travelling to Saint-Etienne to face Slovakia in their final group game at Euro 2016.

Roy Hodgson's team are currently top of Group B with four points from their opening two games and are all but through to the last 16 of the tournament.

A win against Slovakia would see England confirmed as group winners and a trip to Paris for their first game of the knockout stage

Hodgson, though, has some decisions to make with regard to his team selection for the match. He surprised many by naming so many forwards and attacking midfielders in his squad , having earned himself a reputation as a cautious manager.

But it looks to have paid off, strikers Jamie Vardy and Daniel Sturridge both came off the bench to score in the 2-1 win over Wales, while fellow striker Harry Kane remains without a goal at the tournament.

Meanwhile. the England mananger's contract will be renewed if the team "do well" and "play well" at Euro 2016, that's what Football Association chief Greg Dyke has said today.

Hodgson's deal expires at the end of the tournament, and the 68-year-old has indicated he would like to remain in charge for the World Cup in 2018.
