Crouch On Target In Bounce Game

Peter Crouch scored twice and completed 90 minutes as one of several senior players given a training-ground run-out.

Strike partner Matej Vydra and Johann Berg Gudmundsson also bagged a couple each, with Robbie Brady completing the scoring in a 7-1 win against a youthful Salford City side.

Boss Sean Dyche used the exercise at the Barnfield Training Centre to give some game-time to his players who have not featured regularly in the Premier League in recent weeks.

And all played the full game to top up their match-fitness going into the final couple of months of the season.
