Owen reveals fears before operation
England striker Michael Owen has admitted he feared his World Cup dream was over when he was told he needed another operation on his injured foot.
The 26-year-old Newcastle marksman panicked when his surgeon informed him the fracture had not healed fully last month, and so did much of the country.
But after being reassured that the setback was only a minor one, Owen quickly agreed to undergo surgery to hasten his recovery ahead of this summer's tournament in Germany. "When the surgeon called me, there was that panic as well," he admitted. "He said 'I think you should go in and have another operation', and I panicked then."
