England manager Roy Hodgson admits he has a selection headache ahead of the opening Euro 2016 game against Russia in Marseille. Hodgson has shuffled his squad and tried out different formations in Englands warm-up matches, but he now needs to finalise his starting XI for the Stade Velodrome showdown. Yes, there is a selection headache in terms of so many good players who could quite easily command a place in the team, he said.It has not been easy to select a team but I dont think I am alone, there are quite a few teams in the competition who have got a strong squad. England manager Roy Hodgson assesses his squad during training But I am pleased with the squad I have and I have all 23 players fit and ready for selection. Hodgsons mini teamsheet England manager jokes with media during training It is the youngest ever England squad for a European Championship with an average age of 25.8 - with only four players remaining from Euro 2012 - but Hodgson does not believe the lack of experience will be a problem. I think we have got qualities, there is no doubt about that, he said. Wayne Rooney dismisses claims that hes not the player he was in the media conference before Englands opening game of Euro 2016 We are relatively inexperienced because it is a young team in terms of age and number of caps. That cant be seen as an advantage per se but I think that lack of experience is countered in some way by the youth, by the energy. Most importantly of all, it is a group of players who are really keen to do well. They have prepared extremely well, so I cant ask any more of them.All I can do is keep trying to guide them along the way and hope that they succeed as well as they would like to.Hodgson erred on the side of caution when asked how far he felt England, who also play Wales and Slovakia in Group B, could go in the tournament.He said: We want to go as far as we possibly can and well work very hard to play well enough to get as far as we can. But you never know whats going to happen in a football match.Each game has its own history, you dont know which opponents you are going to come up against, you never know what fates will be for you, so were trying to be ready for everything and were trying to stay in this competition for as long as possible.Catch up with all the latest Euro 2016 news with Euro Breakfast each morning on Sky Sports News HQ from 6am Also See: England v Russia preview Hodgsons mini teamsheet How far will England go?

PITTSBURGH -- The Nationals stuck with their ace. The Pirates made them pay. Josh Harrison had a tiebreaking, two-out single two batters after Jose Tabata hit a sacrifice fly off of Stephen Strasburg in the seventh inning, and Pittsburgh handed Washington its fourth straight defeat, 3-2 Saturday night. Strasburg, who struck out 14 in a memorable major league debut against the Pirates almost four years ago, did not allow a hit Saturday until Walkers homer to centre with one out in the fourth. Pittsburgh managed just three more singles off Strasburg until the seventh, when Russell Martin led off with a single and went to third on a one-out double by Starling Marte before scoring on the sacrifice fly by pinch-hitter Tabata. "(Strasburg) pitched very well," Washington manager Matt Williams said. "Of course, they got to him in that last inning but I want to give him a chance to get out of there with a tie game. He was still strong. Hes our ace, hes deserves a chance to get out of it and it didnt work out." Gerrit Cole left after six innings trailing by a run while facing Strasburg in the first matchup in the NL of No. 1 overall draft picks in nine years. Cole -- the top pick of the 2011 draft, two years after Strasburg went first -- allowed two runs on five hits with seven strikeouts. Strasburg (3-4) allowed three runs on seven hits with seven strikeouts in seven innings. Strasburg insisted he wasnt losing his stuff as he crossed the 100-pitch plateau in the seventh. "My command was still pretty good," he said. "I got a pitch in on Martin and he dumped it into the outfield. I tried to pitch around a couple of guys. The pitch that killed me was the hanging curveball to Marte. That really set up the inning for them." Of the Harrison at-bat, Strasburg said: "Hes the type of hitter whos going to put the ball in play and he put it in the right place." Harrison followed pinch-hitter Travis Snider, whom the Nationals intentionally walked after Strasburg fell behind 2-0. "I was pretty much telling myself, I feel like Im seeing everything hes throwing," Harrrison said of his seventh-inning at bat against Stephen Strasburg.dddddddddddd "I was just looking to barrel something up." Neil Walker hit his 10th home run for the Pirates, who tied their season-best winning streak of four. Jered Hughes (3-1), Jeanmar Gomez and Mark Melancon each worked a perfect inning of relief for Pittsburgh. Melancon picked up his ninth save when he finished the Pirates majors-best 14th one-run victory. Ian Desmond hit his ninth homer for Washington (24-25), which has lost six of eight and fell under .500 for the first time this season. "Its tough -- were all trying very hard, trying to get back on track," Strasburg said. "I do think weve probably reached the point where were trying too hard and need to take a step back and let the game come to us." The bullpen backed up Cole, who allowed 10 baserunners and threw 112 pitches in six innings, retiring the side in order only once. Still, Pittsburgh won for the fourth time in five May starts by Cole. Wilson Ramos sawed-off, bloop single in the sixth scored Anthony Rendon to give the Nationals a 2-1 lead. Greg Dobbs went 2 for 4 for the Nationals. NOTES: The Mets Kris Benson (the No. 1 pick of the 1996 draft) faced Cincinnatis Paul Wilson (No. 1 overall in 1994) on May 16, 2005 -- the most recent occurrence of top picks facing each other in the NL.
