Nicolas Lombaerts out of Euro 2016

Belgium have lost the services of a second defender for Euro 2016.

Earlier this month it was announced that skipper Vincent Kompany would play no part in France because of a groin complaint.

Now, it has been confirmed that Zenit St Petersburg centre-back Nicolas Lombaerts will sit out the tournament with a hamstring injury.

Christian Kabasele has since been selected as a replacement.
