(Reuters) - Bayern Munich captain and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer will miss their Bundesliga game with Heidenheim due to an issue with his ribs, manager Vincent Kompany said on Friday.

Neuer, who was given a two-game German Cup ban for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen, did not train with the team on Friday.
