V. Kompany will miss the duel with Wales

Belgian national team captain Vincent Kompany will have to miss the 2016 European Championship qualifying match against Wales due to a calf injury. "Manchester City" defender sat on the bench during the weekend Premier League match against "Queens Park Rangers" and was also not registered for the friendly match against Iceland. National team coach Marc Wilmots revealed that Kompany will definitely not be ready to take the field this weekend. "I received a call from Vincent a little earlier," the coach told RTBF. "He won't be able to play for 10-12 days in the Man City ranks, so we won't see him on Sunday." "It's very unfortunate, but it's not a big problem. We have other options." At the moment, the Belgian national team is in third place in the qualifying group and is three points behind the leader Wales. However, Belgians have played one fewer game.
