Are there any papers on alcohol and recovery from injury around?

I would love to see it's effect on recovery time, particularly on soft tissue injuries. I did everything right on the weekend, I applied RICER but only managed to abide by a couple of the no HARM (no heat etc..) strategies. Alcohol played an important part in the post match celebrations as it does in many sports, but is there a big risk of prolonged recovery?
