Viduka facing Achilles surgery
－－Newcastle striker set to miss Australia matches
By Rob Parrish Last updated: 1st May 2008


　　Newcastle striker Mark Viduka continues to be hampered by an Achilles
injury and could require surgery at the end of the season.

　　Australia coach Pim Verbeek has admitted he expects to be without the
Magpies forward for their four World Cup qualifiers in June.

　　The Socceroos face Iraq in Brisbane and Dubai on 1st June and 7th June
respectively, Qatar in Doha on 14th June and China in Sydney on 22nd June.

　　Verbeek told reporters: "He is struggling with an Achilles problem.

　　"They (Newcastle) are thinking of rehab, having injections and maybe a
small operation at the end of the season so I don't think he will be
available.

　　"He was struggling and when we spoke he said he would see if he is better
and we would find out if he would be available, but it is not going very well
for him.

　　"It will be very difficult for him to be part of the group."


Positive

　　Viduka has been able to feature for the Magpies during their end of season
surge away from possible relegation danger.

　　And he remains committed to helping his country qualify for the World Cup
finals in South Africa in 2010, but only when injury-free.

Viduka 除了集中精力幫助新堡護級外
並表示如果身體健康，希望能代表澳洲參加南非世界盃。

　　Verbeek added: "There is no doubt about it. He was very positive and said
that if he was fit then he would be available."

　　Middlesbrough goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer has recovered from a shoulder
injury and is set to feature for Australia, alongside out-of-favour Liverpool
midfielder Harry Kewell.

　　But Blackburn defender Lucas Neill and Derby forward Mile Sterjovski
could miss matches as their partners are due to give birth in June.
