England manager Roy Hodgson was in good spirits on the eve of their Euro 2016 opener against Russia as he teased photographers during the open training session.

The 68-year-old was pictured holding up a small piece of paper for the assembled media, seemingly mocking assistant Ray Lewington who was photographed on Tuesday carrying a clipboard with a number of player names written on headed Football Association notepaper.

All the squad trained at their base in Chantilly ahead of the trip south to Marseille where they will open their Group B campaign on Saturday.

Hodgson spoke to captain Wayne Rooney and Jack Wilshere during the session as he made final preparations for the match, in which it is possible Adam Lallana and Raheem Sterling could start at the expense of James Milner and Jamie Vardy.
