England's players trained amid tight security this morning ahead of tomorrow's Euro 2016 game against Wales.

Roy Hodgson's squad were put through their paces at the team's base in Chantilly under the watchful gaze of several security drones, manned by Police.

The Three Lions boss has been at pains to ensure his tactics are not leaked to opponents this summer and England warmed up in front of the assembled media before undergoing more detailed preparation behind closed doors.

All 23 players were present, including full-back Ryan Bertrand, which suggests England have a clean bill of health ahead of their clash with Chris Coleman's side.

England have already travelled to the Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis, Lens ahead of Thursday's game and familiarised themselves with the stadium during a pitch walk.

Wales currently sit top of Group B ahead of Slovakia, who beat Russia courtesy of a 2-1 scoreline today.

England sit third with just one point to their name after a draw with Russia and need to secure a positive result against their fellow home nation.

An ongoing ward of words has developed between the two camps in recent days with Gareth Bale questioning England's passion while Wayne Rooney swatted the Real Madrid forward's jibe aside.
