Kompany out of Belgium side to face Iceland
LONDON, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Injured Vincent Kompany will miss Belgium's friendly with Iceland on Wednesday after being left out of the team named by manager Marc Wilmots on Tuesday.
Kompany, Belgium's captain, is recovering from the calf injury which ruled him out of Manchester City's 2-2 draw at Queens Park Rangers in the Premier League on Saturday.
Belgium are hopeful, though, that he will be fit to face leaders Wales in Sunday's Euro 2016 Group B qualifier in Brussels.
Wilmots named a strong team to face Iceland, who are the unexpected leaders of Euro qualifying Group A.
Eight of the Belgium side play in the Premier League, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, Tony Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen, Mousa Dembele, Marouane Fellaini, Adnan Januzaj, Eden Hazard and Christian Benteke.
