http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Owen-c25355 has come out after Manchester United’s 2-0 win over Otelul Galati and stated that he is gutted with his new injury which occurred within the first ten minutes of Manchester United’s match at Old Trafford on Wednesday
night.
Owen was awarded a rare start in the Manchester United starting line up, in the UEFA Champions League alongside http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 in the midfield department. Owen started the match confidently
but then was substituted in the 11th minute and replaced by Javier Hernandez as he pulled his hamstring in the build up play to United’s first goal of the match.
Owen’s latest injury means that he will miss the next few weeks of action for United but he can take refuge in the fact that there is an international break coming up which will allow him to rest and come back from this latest
setback.
With their win over Galati, United are now favourites to go through to the next round of the UEFA Champions League, they hold their fate in their own hands as a win over Benfica in their next UEFA Champions League encounter will
allow them to occupy the top spot in their qualification group.
Speaking through social media networks, Owen said, “Gutted about my injury. Felt my left quad as I reached out to try and score prior to Valencia’s goal. Was really looking forward to playing. Just hope it's not too serious and
I'm back in action soon. Won't get too down. Lads got an important win to put us top of our group.”
Owen’s injury might be a blessing in disguise for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s plans now as
the Scotsman has had his offensive options narrowed down. United will feel that they can gain all three points against Sunderland on the weekend in their next English Premier League encounter and close the gap on Manchester City who are at the top of the table
right now.
