Luis Suarez plays down injury concern

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has played down concerns over a back injury that he picked up on international duty.

The 24-year-old has also declared himself fit for Uruguay's friendly fixture against Italy tomorrow evening.

"I was a little scared by the pain I had in the game but treatment I had was just a precaution and it does not hurt," he told El Pais. "There will be no problem but the decision is going to be the coach.

"I risk a lot to Liverpool. I have a very important game next weekend against Chelsea.

"I love to play every game for the national team but now they are several tough matches in the club and you have to give a little priority."

Suarez scored all four goals as Uruguay defeated Chile 4-0 on Friday night.
