MADRID, Oct. 14 -- Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric said he did not suffer a serious injury during his side's 1-1 draw with Wales on Sunday night.
Modric had to be substituted in the game after a collision in midfield, which has caused concern at Real Madrid ahead of a busy period which sees the club play Mallorca in the Liga Santander at the weekend before a vital Champions League game against Galatasaray and then the first 'Clasico' of the season away to FC Barcelona on October 26th.
However, the Croatian said he doesn't think he will have any problems.
"I got a knock on my thigh, which hurts a bit and which is swollen, but I don't think it's serious and I will be OK in a few days. It's not very nice, but it shouldn't be long term," he commented.
Welsh forward Gareth Bale is also a slight cause for concern after suffering an attack of cramp in the same game in which he scored his side's goal.
Bale played on after his attack of cramp, but his long history of injuries means any muscle issue with the forward will always be a worry and both Bale and Modric will undergo tests on Tuesday.
