Owen Back in Action
Soccer: Steve McLaren waits with baited breath as it has emerged Michael Owen is due to play a reserves match for Newcastle United tomorrow.
Michael Owen's recuperation moves on a stage tomorrow when the Newcastle United and England striker takes part in reserves match behind closed doors against a junior team from Hartlepool United.
It is not known how long Owen will play - 45 minutes is anticipated - but his participation will be of huge encouragement to Glenn Roeder and the England head coach, Steve McClaren.
Should Owen emerge unscathed, his line of progression from knee surgery indicates a possible Premiership home return against Chelsea on April 22.
