Owen faces scan after suffering knee injury
COLOGNE, June 20 (Reuters) - England striker Michael Owen was taken away on a stretcher after twisting his knee just over a minute into their final Group B game with Sweden on Tuesday.
Owen, who will have a scan on Wednesday, fell awkwardly and twisted his right knee as he went down, forcing coach Sven-Goran Eriksson to send on Peter Crouch as a fourth minute substitute.
He was hoping to avoid using Crouch since the lanky striker already has one yellow card and another would rule him out of this weekend's second round match against Germany or Ecuador.
Owen had been looking to show his true form against the Swedes, having been given less than an hour in England's two previous group wins over Paraguay and Trinidad & Tobago after a lengthy absence with a broken foot.
A serious injury for the 26-year-old, who has scored 36 goals in 79 England appearances, would be a blow to their tournament prospects.
Along with Wayne Rooney, who against the Swedes was starting his first game since breaking his foot on April 29, Owen is England's only proven goalscorer at the top level.
Eriksson had gambled by taking only four strikers to Germany, with the other being 17-year-old Theo Walcott.
The teenager has only made one substitutes' appearance for England, in last month's friendly win over Hungary, and has never played for Arsenal since joining them in January.
Crouch, who scored the opening goal in last week's 2-0 win over Trinidad & Tobago, is still at the start of his England career, leaving Eriksson short of options.

我已經等唔切啦..艾力臣唔該即刻走人啦
我冇睇到上半場..但下半場既表現簡直係垃圾...
贏唔到波絕對係一件好事..
因為英格蘭只要繼續贏波..艾力臣就會繼續認為佢既戰術係岩
(雖然佢而家都係咁諗...因為出到線 ...
喂老友
聽講艾生o既呢套戰術觀念真係用左好多年架喇喎:icon101:

我一早已經唔認同佢既戰術...
但係佢教英格蘭之後成績唔錯..
所以佢唔會諗下自己既戰術有冇問題...
其他人亦都唔會向佢提出...
