Man City will have to cope without Kompany against PSG

MANCHESTER, England (AP) - Manchester City will be without captain Vincent Kompany when the team faces Paris Saint-Germain for a spot in the Champions League semifinals.

The defender has failed to recover from a right knee injury with the quarterfinal even at 2-2 heading into the second leg in Manchester on Tuesday.

City manager Manuel Pellegrini says Kompany is not 100 percent so it's "not possible" he can play, but says "we have a lot of trust in the squad."
