Gary Neville was known for his celebrations during his playing days (ask any Liverpool fan) and after England's dramatic winner over Wales, the former Manchester United player showed he still has a taste for them.

With the players celebrating after Daniel Sturridge's injury-time strike Neville ran the length of the touchline to get involved.

The England assistant manager leaped on top of the players as they grouped in the corner, knowing that they had beaten Wales and done enough to move top of Group B and virtually into the knock-out phase of Euro 2016.

Roy Hodgson was also understandably very pleased to see Sturridge find a late winner...

It was the England manager's bold substitutions that swung the game in England's favour following Gareth Bale's opener in the first half. Hodgson brought on Jamie Vardy and Sturridge at half time, with the former levelling the score before the latter got the winner.
