Manchester City's Vincent Kompany: Exits UCL match early

Kompany limped off the pitch in the eighth minute of Wednesday's Champions League tie against Real Madrid with an apparent leg injury.

Analysis:

If Kompany is sidelined long term, it could spell trouble for a Man City squad fighting to retain their Champions League spot for the 2016-17 campaign. Eliaquim Mangala subbed in for the 30-year-old defender Wednesday and will likely be his replacement in the starting XI against Arsenal on Sunday if Kompany is not fit for the match.
