Kompany to miss Euro 2016

Beginning to suspect Vardy and Sturridge may start against Slovakia

Have to make it count though. Don't altogether trust the defence so goals are needed...anyway need the three points today.

Wales should be confident of defeating Russia, so a point here will be great for them.

Rashford on as well. Is Hodgson okay?

Rashford coming on ?

Can't say Roy isn't having a go...

Must be Lallana who does his usual 45 minutes of effectiveness

Hodgson finally bowing down to peer pressure and making some decent subs.

Rashford for Lallana

Roy's last stand!

Wales seem to have weathered the storm a little.

I as slated for putting that front three on paper last week, they can't play in the wider roles.

England have lost a bit of momentum here. Need to get back on the ball

Lovely stuff by Joe Allen. Johnny williams has the bit between his teeth too.

Walker looks the best right back in the Euro's. Says everything about the opposition we've faced

Wales have had no outlet since Robson-Kanu went off.

Does Bale have a Luis Suarez moment in him?

We're still bang average, it's basically throw all our offensive options on & hope it works. There is no real plan.

Exactly. It's a mash-up of various individuals into no cohesive structure.

Sturridge! England take it.

England 2-1 Wales - Sturridge 91st min

Danny Boy has scored the winner!!!

STURRIDGE!

STURRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIDDDDGGGGGEEEEEEE

Hennesy probably should have done better.

Well done Sturridge though.

ft 2-1

Nearly **** myself when Bale went up for that

Oh good, Savage has shut up at long last!

Wales paid the price for being too negative, and underrating themselves. England just battered their way through without playing particularly well.

Wales were dire & didn't deserve to get anything really.

England's first ever comeback win in a major tournament ever Lineker is saying.

England will qualify if they avoid losing, win the group if they win.

Wales would actually be 3rd if they draw and Slovakia win.

WHERES YOUR PASSION NOW YOU TOM JONES LOVING WOOFTERS!!

Well done Sturridge

And well done Roy with the substitutions this time.

England deserved the win - Wales didn't really do much but defend. But I reckon they'll get what they need against Russia and go through anyway.

Now it would be nice to see England put two halves together against Slovakia...

I think Sturridge should get booked for that poor goal celebration.

Shocking.

Yeah, thanks God for gifting us that win

Don't think Wales could really go with any other approach. Bale aside, they can't go man to man with England

Roy still has work to do. Didn't really work much better in the 2nd half but they took their chances this time. Think Sturridge up front next game.

Not sure who plays left

Paper over the cracks. Win is a win and I am glad to see us go on as its great for the youngsters whose confidence will rise. Yet let's be frank, Roy went for it because we were so poor and behind...after Russia he knew anything but brave subs would create huge criticism from media. I hate that the media and pundits will drool over Roy now without being honest that he had no options but to go for it. He didn't show intelligence...that would have been dropping out of form players in the first place.

Now is the real test for Roy, has he the balls to play the likes of Vardy etc from the off and leave the dross on the bench (that includes Rooney who was still crud in the 2nd half).

A bit embarrassing to struggle past such a poor side.

Negative post from Owen post match - some things will never change! (Rooney was good I thought)

Eh? Sweden 2012 and Cameroon 1990 spring to mind.

Cruel

BUZZING. £50 at 8/1 on the 2-1.

Negative? Why...because we don't kid ourselves over a over rated team?

I don't get excited by our national team just because we scrape past a defensive Wales and hold an extremely poor Wales...just like I wouldn't enjoy a rarw fillet steak over a medium rare just because someone gave it to me for free

I wonder why you watch football sometimes I really do, you don't seem to ever enjoy it

Owen you wouldn't get excited if Santa personally delivered you a unicorn.
