In my opinion you might have a mild strain, since you have no swelling and no other restrictions in movement seems to be a mild injury.
Next Steps
Some rest and application of ice pack on to the affected area will help, and avoid any impactful activity as of now till the pain subsides you can bandage the area as it will provide an additional support and protect the area of injury.
Health Tips
After the pain subsides, and when you resume back your game, always do some warm up stretches before the game and make sure you are adequately hydrated this will prevent any form of injury.
As body takes time to heal make sure you keep your injured part supported by bandaging or bracing during the game because once the tissue gets injured becomes prone to recurrent injury.
