Robben to miss two games with muscle injury

Winger Robben, who only recently returned after a four-week absence due to a back injury, will miss Saturday's Bavarian derby against Nuremberg as well as the clash at Valencia in the Champions League next week.

"He will not be at our disposal tomorrow and against Valencia," coach Jupp Heynckes told reporters. He said the club would have to see how Robben recovered after that.

"Luiz is not feeling well and will most likely not be with us," Heynckes said.

"It is my job to bring him back carefully," said Heynckes, adding a final decision on the striker would be taken later on Friday.
