Football: Pedro out for 10 days due to leg injury

Barcelona winger Pedro Rodriguez will be out of action for 10 days after pulling a muscle in his leg during Tuesday's 1-0 World Cup qualifying victory in France, his club said Wednesday. Pedro scored the winning goal before being substituted for club team-mate Cesc Fabregas in the 76th minute. His injury means he will miss this weekend's clash with Celta Vigo in La Liga and perhaps the next game as well. "Pedro will miss the match this Saturday against Celta and he's doubtful for next weekend's match against Mallorca," said Barcelona in a statement.

Football: Pedro double sees Spain past Uruguay

World and European champions Spain stretched their unbeaten run at senior international level to 17 games with a 3-1 win over Uruguay on Wednesday thanks to two goals from Pedro Rodriguez. A goalkeeping error from Fernando Muslera gifted Spain the lead after just 16 minutes as he allowed Cesc Fabregas' long-range effort to slip through his grasp, but Uruguay were deservedly level before half-time as Cristian Rodriguez fired home after latching onto Martin Caceres' clever pass.
