Wales winger Gareth Bale has pulled out of Saturday's Euro 2012 clash against England with a hamstring injury.

The Football Association of Wales confirmed on Thursday morning that the player would take no part in the Millennium Stadium encounter after suffering tightness in the muscle.

The 21-year-old's training has been curtailed this week and, following a scan, he is now returning to his club Tottenham for further assessment.
