In the previously reported game for Galatasaray Harry Kewell suffered a groin strain. Although it is not considered too serious, it was enough to see him substituted in the 70th minute. Details are still a little sketchy but club officials have warned that if he isn't fit for this weekends cup match, he won't be released for the World Cup qualifier against Qatar (Brisbane Oct15th). It's disappointing news for the Socceroo ace who has scored 5 times in 8 games for his newly joined Turkish club.
In other news, Everton have vowed to fight Tim Cahill's red card, which at the time only seemed worth a yellow at best.

The picture is from his Leeds days, I was just aiming to confuse people.
kewell scored in the 66th minute, that means 5mins later went down injured?
I guess its possible.
Well the report said "with 20minutes to go." He probably gets injured every time he scores.
Groin injuries are really pesky. The only thing that really helps is rest. I think for the Qatar game, the socceroos are deep enough, and it's a home game in OZ, for the socceroos to overcome Kewall's probable absence. Britain to Austrlia, even in first class, that is a LONG flight with a sore leg...
