Watch action from the England Under-21s training session on the Elite pitch at St. George's Park.

Stuart Pearce took his team for another training session at St. George's Park on Sunday, but this time it was on the immaculate elite pitch - an exact replica of Wembley Stadium's surface. 

It was the last real chance for Pearce to put his troops through their paces before Monday's final Euro 2013 Qualifier with Norway in Chesterfield.

FATV were again on hand to film the action, which included a high-energy small-sided came on the lush turf. Also in attendance was former Watford manager and Chesterfield legend Sean Dyche, who has been invited along with the squad for a couple of days by Pearce.

England's meeting with the Norwegians is a game that will decide which of the two nations will reach next month's play-offs as Group 8 winners.

Watch the small-sided match session in the player below.
