Charlton striker Simon Church faces a spell on the sidelines after injuring his shoulder playing for Wales.

The 25-year-old had to go off after landing awkwardly just four minutes into Monday night's 2-1 Euro 2016 qualifying win over Cyprus.

Church is now praying he will not have to spend too long in the treatment room.

He wrote on Twitter: "Hopefully not out for too long, the boys were great again, good start need to keep it up, support was brilliant."

Church has made just three substitute appearances for the Addicks this season, with his only goal coming in the 4-0 Capital Cup win over Colchester in August.
