ANNECY, France (Reuters) - Iceland's joint coach Lars Lagerback has never lost to England and he wants his players to maintain his unbeaten run and continue their sensational streak at Euro 2016 when the two sides play in the last 16 on Monday.

Lagerback faced the English six times as Sweden coach and stayed unbeaten and he now hopes Iceland, the tournament's surprise team, will stretch that run.
