Kewell to miss Confederation Cup

Last updated : 14 June 2005 By Al Campbell
Kewell has undergone surgery on his groin after a tendon snapped during the European Cup final. The injury means Kewell misses Australia's participation in the Confederation Cup which starts in Germany tomorrow.

Les Gelis, physio of the Australian national team, says: "Harry's disappointed that he is missing the Confederations Cup but he realises that it is more important that he gets his injuries fixed and has a strong pre-season.
 
"That way he can be a key part of Liverpool's team for next season and be in good shape for Australia's World Cup qualifiers."
