Aaron Ramsey sits out Wales' opening World Cup qualifier through injury

Aaron Ramsey will miss Wales' opening World Cup qualifier against Moldova.

Ramsey suffered a hamstring injury in Arsenal's Premier League opener against Liverpool, and Gunners boss Arsene Wenger said he would not be fit until after the international break.

Wales manager Chris Coleman, naming his squad for the Moldova game in Cardiff on September 5, said he expected Ramsey to be out for another three weeks.
