The Arsenal striker Robin Van Persie has only just returned to the Dutch national team after suffering an ankle ligament injury last year in a friendly against Italy, and he looked back to his best as he scored both goals in Hollands 2-1 win over Mexico last week.
But last night in a training session at the Dutch training camp in Austria, he twisted his ankle again, and according to the mornings Mail, he left the field with his foot packed with ice to relieve the pressure.
There are only two weeks left until Holland’s opening World Cup match against Denmark, and coach Bert van Marwijk will face an anxious wait to find out if his star striker will recover in time.

Arsenal will face a Barcelona side without influential midfielder Andrés Iniesta after he was ruled out of Wednesday’s Champions League clash with a hamstring injury.
The Spain international was replaced just after half-time in last night’s Primera Division win over Real Mallorca and, after undergoing tests today, it was announced that he is likely to be sidelined for around 10 days.
Barcelona were once more imperious in their victory over Mallorca despite a seemingly narrow 1-0 win.

Fabregas is still struggling with a hamstring injury and looks certain to miss out, while Tomas Rosicky faces a fitness test on his groin problem.
Bacary Sagna (ankle) is also a doubt, but Sol Campbell is expected to be available after suffering from cramp after the midweek Champions League win over Porto.
Midfielder Alex Song serves the second match of a domestic ban, while centre-back William Gallas (calf) is still sidelined.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger criticised referee Martin Hansson for allowing the controversial goal which left his side trailing in their last-16 Champions League clash with Porto.
Polish goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, deputising for the injured Manuel Almunia, was caught out of position to gift Porto an early lead.
Veteran Sol Campbell equalised with his first Arsenal goal since the 2006 Champions League final, only to then be involved in the controversy at the start of the second half.
Fabianski picked up what was deemed a back-pass from the former Gunners captain, with Hansson – the Swede who missed Thierry Henry’s infamous handball in France’s World Cup play-off win over the Republic of Ireland – letting it be taken quickly as Falcao swept the ball into the net.
