Jancker out of United clash

Carsten Jancker will mis FC Bayern München's match against Manchester United FC.

Carsten Jancker is out of FC Bayern München's UEFA Champions League stage two Group A match against Manchester United FC with a mystery injury.

Training injury
The German international striker hurt his right ankle in training at the weekend, and his coach Ottmar Hitzfeld has confirmed that Jancker will miss the Wednesday trip to Old Trafford. "He will not play but we don't know exactly what his injury is," Hitzfeld said.

Three points from quarter-finals
Victory for the European champions would confirm their place in the quarter-finals as group winners, and a draw would also put both sides in the last eight if FC Nantes Atlantique do not lose at home to Boavista FC.

Midfield players out
However, Bayern face the game against the side they lost to in the 1999 final without midfield players Hasan Salihamidzic and Mehmet Scholl, as well as Jancker.
