Socceroo Injury Update 24/4/2006
Australian soccer fans breathed a collective sigh of relief today when it was announced that Harry Kewell's participation in the FA Cup Final and the World Cup finals was not under threat. Kewell strained an adductor muscle in his right thigh in the second half of Saturday's game with Chelsea. He will miss Liverpool's Premiership match against FA Cup final opponents West Ham United on Wednesday.
The news was not so good for Australia's heroic goalkeeper, Mark Schwarzer, who is likely to miss the rest of Middlesbrough's season. Schwarzer fractured his cheekbone in a clash with Dean Ashton in the FA Cup semi-final against West Ham on Sunday. It is not all bad news as Middlesbrough's Head of Medical Grant Downie says, "Mark is likely to miss the rest of Middlesbrough's season but should be okay for the World Cup."
Australia's World Cup squad is named on May 15.
