England have finished off their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign with 10 wins out of 10.

In their final match in Group E, Roy Hodgson's men cruised to a 3-0 win over their hosts Lithuania.

The goals came from Ross Barkley and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, which sandwiched a Harry Kane effort which went in off goalkeeper Giedrius Arlauskis.

Also tonight, Switzerland, Spain, Slovakia, Austria and Russia all qualified for the finals in France.

Spain won 1-0 in Ukraine, to consign the latter to the playoffs while Switzerland also forced Slovenia into the playoffs by taking all three points in Estonia.

Austria and Russia's progression to the tournament means third-placed Sweden are the team which must go through the playoffs.
