(BBC) England striker Michael Owen is almost certainly out of the World Cup. The 26-year-old twisted his right knee as he played a pass to Ashley Cole in the first minute of England's 2-2 draw with Sweden in Cologne on Tuesday. Sven-Goran Eriksson said after the game: "Maybe he's out of the tournament, I'm not sure. It doesn't look good at all." An England source told BBC Sport Owen would miss the rest of the tournament as the injury was "very serious". Owen will have a scan at England's Baden-Baden base camp on Wednesday, having flown back there from Cologne with the rest of the squad overnight. England skipper David Beckham admitted he thought Owen's injury was serious. "I think it's a bad one," he said. "We are going to have to wait to see what the doctors say tomorrow. "It's sad - Michael's one of those players you need in big tournaments. It's unfortunate for him and for us." Former England captain Alan Shearer, who played with Owen at Newcastle last season, told Match of the Day on Tuesday night: "I have had a text from him. He's in a lot of pain and he hopes it's not bad." Owen, who was winning his 80th cap, crawled off the pitch as soon as he hit the ground, suggesting he knew something was seriously wrong. Ice was put on the knee and a brace was later applied. The bad injury caps a nightmare season for Owen, who returned to English football last summer in a ￡17m switch from Real Madrid to Newcastle. He enjoyed a successful start to his Newcastle career, but broke his foot on New Year's Eve at Tottenham. Owen battled back to play at the World Cup but looked less than fully fit and was substituted in both of England's opening games, without scoring. Now it appears his World Cup is over - which also leaves England alarmingly short of strikers. Wayne Rooney, who has also just recovered from a broken metatarsal, made his first start on Tuesday since suffering that injury. Peter Crouch and the untested Theo Walcott are the only other established strikers in Eriksson's squad. The Swede was heavily criticised when he picked his World Cup party for only including four strikers - leaving Jermain Defoe and Darren Bent at home. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 雖然還沒有確定的結果 但是為什麼會這麼苦呢 〒︿〒
