DOHA : England manager Gareth Southgate knows Wales will have"additional motivation" when the two sides clash in their final Group B game at the World Cup on Tuesday.

For Wales, their hopes of progression are hanging by a thread with their destiny far from in their own hands after a dramatic late defeat by Iran on Friday. "They have some world class players who can produce moments of brilliance with their clubs and country, they have good spirit and organisation and we know the quality of the Ukraine side they beat to get here.

Southgate will not be doing that again as he says finishing top of the group is the priority, although he was coy when asked whether captain Harry Kane, who failed to score in England's first two games, might be rested.
