Last updated : 15 May 2002 By
The 25 year old, picked up the back injury whilst playing for Norway in their 3 - 0 friendly victory in Oslo against World Cup hosts Japan.

Iversen has missed most of the season through and ankle injury, but recently returned to the team, performing well.

The full extent of the injury isn't clear, but it seems likely that he will be rested for several weeks, and then return for first team training in time for the annual trip to La Manga for pre-season next month.
