NICE, France (Reuters) - England winger Raheem Sterling was recalled in place of Adam Lallana as coach Roy Hodgson again made sweeping changes to his team for Monday's Euro 2016 last 16 match against Iceland.

Sterling has not featured since being substituted at halftime in the second group game, a 2-1 win over Wales, but despite his ineffective displays returns as England look to his trickery to break down what is likely to be a packed defence.
