Allen likely to miss Georgia game, concedes Coleman

Joe Allen looks set to miss Wales' World Cup qualifier against Georgia on Sunday after hobbling out of the 2-2 draw in Austria.

The Stoke City midfielder opened the scoring in Vienna - his second strike in two games for his country - before being withdrawn in the second half with a hamstring injury.

While Wales manager Chris Coleman was quick to reiterate that it was not a serious issue, he does not expect to have Allen available in Cardiff at the weekend.

"The way it is, we probably won't have Joe," he was quoted by the BBC.
