possible HIV transmission?

hello all thank you for your help. i was walking bare foot in the woods yesterday and i cut my foot on a broken wine bottle that was very dirty. i do not know where the bottle came from or how long its been there. I wanted to know if it is possible to get HIV from such a cut? i went to the doctor to get a tetanus shot for it but forgot to ask about the HIV. So is transmission this was possible?

thank you for your help guys and gals.
