The Holland international lasted just 25 minutes after appearing as a half-time replacement before he himself had to be substituted with a hamstring problem.

Robben will now undergo further tests over the next few days to determine the extent of the injury and how long he is likely to be out for.

Madrid coach Bernd Schuster believes his side felt Robben's loss during the 2-2 draw against Espanyol, saying: "It's a pity he got injured because I'm sure that with him on the pitch things would have turned out better."
