Sturridge scores last minute for England to beat Wales

England players celebrate with Daniel Sturridge after scoring against Wales.

Daniel Sturridge struck an injury‑time winner as England came from behind to beat Wales 2-1 and secure their first victory at Euro 2016.

England keeper Joe Hart's dreadful blunder allowed Gareth Bale's 30 yard free kick to creep in and put Wales ahead just before the break.

England has moved top of Group B and need a point against Slovakia next Tuesday to earn automatic qualification into the last 16 while Wales must beat Russia to guarantee a top two finish.

In other matches, Ukraine lost to Northern Ireland 2-nil.
