Arsenal striker Robin van Persie
has been ruled out of Holland's World Cup qualifier against
Iceland.
The 25-year-old forward is suffering from a hamstring injury and
will therefore not be risked in the fixture in Rotterdam on
Saturday.
Van Persie, who has netted five goals for Arsenal this term,
will, however, be reassessed ahead of next Wednesday's visit to
Norway.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid defender Johnny Heitinga is
struggling with a knee injury so PSV Eindhoven's Jan Kromkamp has
been drafted in as cover.
Bert van Marwij's Holland are seeking back-to-back wins in Group
9 after they opened their road to South Africa with a success over
Macedonia last month.
