Injury doubt: Robin van Persie, speaking at a
press conference in Holland, could miss Friday's World Cup qualifier
against Hungary in Amsterdam
'I got an enormous stamp on my toe [against Shakhtar] and I really thought it had been broken, but luckily a scan showed it was not,' Van Persie told a press conference.
'I played on Saturday [in the 2-1 win at Sunderland] but the injury has not got better.'
Pain game: Van Persie sustained the injury against Shaktar Donetsk but scans showed that he has not suffered a broken toe

Fitness fight: Van Persie played for United against Sunderland last week and hopes to be fit for Holland
