Arsenal have been dealt a worrying injury scare after Robin van Persie failed to complete Holland's training session due to a groin problem.

The Gunners skipper walked off the Wembley pitch for the final 15 minutes of Tuesday's session ahead of the clash against England.

Van Persie was in visible discomfort before coming off, missing an eight-a-side training match.

Sportsmail was told last night that Van Persie made the decision to come off after feeling pain in his groin.

Van Persie went into last night's session carrying a 'very mild' groin problem from Sunday's win over Tottenham, though it was not deemed serious enough to keep him out of meeting up with the Dutch squad.
