Walcott suffers calf injury scare
By Phil McNulty
Chief football writer in Baden-Baden
England's teenage World Cup star Theo Walcott has given coach Sven-Goran Eriksson a minor injury scare.
Arsenal's 17-year-old striker suffered a slight calf injury during a training session on Sunday.
But he is expected to resume work again ahead of Thursday's match with Trinidad and Tobago.
Eriksson will not want any further injury worries with Michael Owen still short of match practice and Wayne Rooney on the comeback trail.
Walcott was an unused substitute in the win against Paraguay in Frankfurt.
