West Brom and Northern Ireland star Chris Brunt is a doubt for Euro 2016 after suffering a knee injury in Saturday's 3-2 win over Crystal Palace.

The 31-year-old suffered what may be a cruciate ligament injury when he fell awkwardly just before half-time.

Brunt, who was hit by a coin thrown by his own fans last week, has undergone a scan.

Baggies fans sang his name on 11 minutes against Palace in a show of support, and collected money for chosen charities.

Boss Tony Pulis said: "We're concerned about him. Looks as though he's done something to the knee joint.

Captain Darren Fletcher said: "We just hope that the scan proves that he's back for us soon and ready for Northern Ireland in the Euros as well.
