Plane issue grounds England squad in Turin

Roy Hodgson's men had been due to fly back after their 1-1 draw in Turin on Tuesday, but are now facing a delay of around 12 hours.

"England team to stay extra night in Turin after technical issue to their plane means they will fly home tomorrow mid-morning," read a tweet from the team's official account.

The delay will not be welcomed by the players' clubs, many of whom will be in Premier League action on Saturday.
