Woodgate suffers fresh injury setback

JONATHAN WOODGATE has suffered a fresh injury setback. The Real Madrid centre-back had just returned from a torn hamstring to play two matches in a week, including the Primera Liga match against Villarreal on Sunday.

He played for the full 90 minutes but since the game, which finished goalless, he has been troubled by a muscle strain in his left leg.

Woodgate missed training with his team-mates yesterday, working in the gym instead, with Madrid hopeful the injury will be one he can quickly recover from.
