Liverpool striker plays down injury fears

By Francisco Acedo Last updated: 7th February 2008

Super Sunday - Premier League


Fernando Torres has played down fears over the hamstring injury which forced him off during Spain's victory over France and insists he will be fit to face Chelsea on Sunday.

The Liverpool striker limped off in Seville after just 23 minutes and immediately there were fears that the Spaniard could be set for a spell on the sidelines.

Spain's team doctor Jorge Candel was quick to come out after the game to play down the severity of the injury.

"The injury of Torres is not of major importance," said Candel.

No risk

Torres then confirmed that he came off at his own request to make sure he did not damage himself with Liverpool's match with Chelsea very much on his mind.

"I preferred not to risk it," said Torres. "I demanded the change.

"I will have medical tests, but I intend to play on Sunday against Chelsea."

The news will be a huge boost to Rafa Benitez, who would have been sweating over the fitness of his prized striker.

Re: Torres okay for Chelsea
If he's definitely fit we should be claiming he's very doubtful.

I hope he's definitely fit.

Re: Torres okay for Chelsea
When watching the England game (I have minimal interest in international football), and hearing one of the pundits/commentators say torres went off injured I was ready to go apeshit on mark lawrenson. But now that hes OK for chelski Im not as pissed off as I was before.

I dont think Gerrard would put club before country, but I think Torres and more obviously Carra would definately!

Re: Torres okay for Chelsea
I seen him coming off this morning on Spanish TV and it did not look bad at all, he was rubbing the hamstring but as he came off he seemed to be walking fine.

I let out a very loud sigh of relief when I seen it, almost a cheer actually.

He can't score from 6 yards out with an open goal anyway. I'm not worried.
