José Mourinho will "wait until the very last minute" before deciding whether to start Wesley Sneijder in FC Internazionale Milano's UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against PFC CSKA Moskva after the playmaker suffered an ankle injury in training.

The Dutch international sustained a blow to his right ankle in a tackle with Sulley Muntari at the Luzhniki Stadium on Monday, making him a doubt for Tuesday's decider. "He had a problem in training; let's wait and see," said Mourinho of the 25-year-old. "I will wait until the very last minute as this is the most important game of the season and I will take risks if necessary."

Should Sneijder – who helped create the only goal of the first leg scored by Diego Milito – recover in time, he will make his 50th UEFA club competition appearance.
