Theo Walcott has been declared fit to face Ukraine in England's last group-stage match at the European Championship.

The Arsenal winger was forced out of training on Sunday with a hamstring problem, two days after scoring in England's 3-2 victory over Sweden.

But coach Roy Hodgson says "he is fit for the game and luckily we don't have any injury concerns."

England only needs a draw against Ukraine in Donetsk on Tuesday to qualify for the quarter-finals.
