Man City skipper Kompany to miss Belgium's friendly with Iceland

Vincent Kompany will miss Belgium's friendly with Iceland on Wednesday night.

The Manchester City captain missed his club's 2-2 draw with QPR on the weekend and will not be available for Belgium's home meeting this week.

Marc Wilmots' Rode Duivels are using the friendly as a tune-up for the November 16 Euro2016 qualifier against Wales in Brussels which key defender Kompany should be fit for.

Belgium are sitting third on the Group B table with four points from two outings while Wales are top of the group after notching two wins and a draw in their three opening fixtures.
