Bruce left sweating over Sunderland ace Bent as striker faces three weeks out
Anxious wait: Darren Bent could miss the best part of a month after a scan on his injured hamstring[LNB]Sunderland boss Steve Bruce is anxiously awaiting the results of a scan on top scorer Darren Bent. [LNB] Bent pulled up clutching his hamstring late in Saturday's 1-0 win over Arsenal at the Stadium of Light - a match in which he scored the winner - and underwent a scan yesterday. [LNB] The England striker, who has scored nine goals in a impressive start to his career on Wearside, is a doubt for this weekend's trip to Wigan and Bruce is hoping he is not set for a longer absence. [LNB]He told the club's official website, www.safc.com: 'Darren's had a scan and we're waiting for the results. If it is his hamstring, we could be looking at about three weeks out. [LNB] 'We won't know anything more until the results come back so we will have to keep our fingers crossed.'[LNB]Bent's absence would leave Bruce with a headache as Kenwyne Jones is suspended after being sent-off against West Ham last month.
