Peter Odemwingie vows to make amends after red card against Fulham

West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie has said that he wants to bounce back instantly after being sent off against Fulham.

Odemwingie was dismissed in the first half of the Baggies' 3-0 defeat in west London for violent conduct after kicking Fulham defender Sascha Riether.

The Nigerian striker told BBC West Midlands: "It made things harder for my team. A one-man advantage is a big advantage.

"Hopefully when I come back playing I will compensate my team with some good actions and contributions to the next win.

"As a team we need to bounce back. We are a united group and I had encouragement from my teammates to forget about it. I will be more worried if it happened more often than one or two times in my career."

The 31-year-old forward is suspended for the Baggies' next Premier League match at home to Reading on Saturday, September 22.
