More pain for Owen
Posted Thursday, February 17, 2011 by The Sun
MICHAEL OWEN is facing another spell on the sidelines after damaging his groin in training.
The Manchester United striker's injury curse struck again at the club's Carrington training base on Monday afternoon.
Owen was taking part in a shooting session when he pulled up and immediately walked off the pitch, telling coaching staff his "groin had gone."
He was sent for scans yesterday and United expect to discover today how long the 31-year-old will be out of action.
Owen has made only six league appearances this season, scoring one goal, but was on target last month in the 2-1 FA Cup victory at Southampton.
He was out for three months after a hamstring problem picked up in October, but was pencilled in to face Sun-sponsored non-leaguers Crawley Town at Old Trafford in Saturday's televised fifth-round tie.
