Vincent Kompany shows his class after firecracker thrown at pitch

Belgian professional footballer Vincent Kompany has endured a tough time this season since returning to Anderlecht, where he is captain and manager.
A 2-1 home defeat against runaway Belgian league leaders Club Brugge left Anderlecht ninth in the table, but the game was also marked by a touch of class from the ex-Manchester City man.
When a firecracker was thrown onto the pitch and exploded next to Brugge's ex-Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, Kompany came across to remonstrate with his own team's fans.
"Simon is a player for the Belgian national team. That comes before anything else. We are going through a difficult time, but we still have to show some class," said Kompany.
