West Bromwich Albion Vs. Aston Villa: Richard Dunne Injury Forces Substitution

Injury problems for Aston Villa's defence, although surprirsingly it isn't James Collins who has to depart despite the Welsh centre back taking several knocks in the first half. Instead, his partner Richard Dunne is the man to depart after picking up a problem with his leg while tussling with West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie. He tries to play on and then waves to the bench for a substitution. Young utilityman Ciaran Clark is sent on in his place. Hopefully the injury isn't too bad - it certainly doesn't look terrible, and Dunne was able to hobble off without much help.

West Brom are making a substitution as well, with Gonzalo Jara being yanked with what appears to be a bad case of the being-awfuls. He goes straight down the tunnel, so it could be an injury, but if there was some sort of incident that led to him picking up a problem I completely missed it. Anyway, Gabriel Tamas is the man to replace him at right back.
