STARS IN EUROPE - CONGO DR - Brussels explosions - Dieumerci Mbokani 'unharmed but shaken'

AFRICA CUP 2017 QUALIFIERS Dieumerci Mbokani

 

Dieumerci Mbokani 'unharmed but shaken' in Tuesday's explosions at Brussels Airport.

Mbokani, 30, was at the airport when the two blasts took place, but Norwich say the DR Congo player is now home.

Many people have been killed or seriously injured in terror attacks at the airport and a city metro station, says Belgium's prime minister.

Belgium's football team cancelled their training session on Tuesday out of respect for the victims of the attacks.

They are scheduled to play Portugal in a friendly at Brussels' King Baudouin Stadium on 29 March, but the fixture is now in doubt.

Belgium have qualified for Euro 2016 in France and are in Group E with Italy, Republic of Ireland and Sweden.
