Australia lose Wilkshire to injury
Moscow, Nov 11 (IANS/RIA Novosti) Dynamo Moscow full-back Luke Wilkshire has said he will be out for two weeks and miss an Australia friendly after pulling a hamstring in a Russian premier League football match.
Wilkshire was substituted by Nikita Chicherin in the 17th minute of Dynamo’s 2-0 win over Alania Vladikavkaz Saturday.
The injury rules the Australian international out of a friendly against South Korea in Hwaseong Wednesday.
“Pulled my hamstring,” Wilkshire said in comments on the Dynamo Twitter feed. “Out for two weeks.”
He added: “Won’t go to the national team now.”
Wilkshire is a regular for Australia and has been a starting player in all four games of Australia’s 2014 World Cup qualification campaign so far.
He has played in 11 games for Dynamo this season.
