Crystal Palace defender Jonathan Parr is relieved to have avoided serious injury.

A collision with Latics winger Callum McManaman left Parr needing oxygen on the pitch before being taken to hospital during his side's 2-1 loss at the DW Stadium on Saturday.

"I am extremely happy that I am 100% well," he told Sky Sports.

"It was a hard knock, but I am happy I have not suffered a serious injury.

"I hope to be back playing soon."
