England will head into their Euro 2016 last-16 clash with Iceland with a clean bill of health after all 23 players trained on Saturday.

England travel to Nice on Sunday looking to win their first knockout game in a major tournament in 10 years and Roy Hodgson has no injury concerns ahead of the trip. 

Adam Lallana, one of five players to start every Group B game, had been a concern after being pictured with an ice pack on his right ankle, but the Liverpool midfielder trained alongside his team-mates at the Stade des Bourgognes and is expected to be available.
