Double Injury Blow For England

Rio Ferdinand and Michael Dawson have both pulled out of the England squad for the games with Brazil and Estonia.

 

The defensive pair are struggling with groin problems and they have been ruled out of Steve McClaren's plans.

 

Manchester United ace Ferdinand missed training on Monday and Tottenham defender Dawson suffered the groin injury during last Friday's B international with Albania.

 

In the absence of Ferdinand and Dawson, Jamie Carragher is likely to start in central defence alongside John Terry.

 

The duo join Aaron Lennon in withdrawing from the original squad for both games.

 

England take on Brazil at Wembley on Friday before travelling to Tallinn for the Euro 2008 qualifier on 6th June.
