Aston Villa goalkeeper Orjan Nyland has taken to social networking site Twitter to give his reaction to his side’s win against Swansea City at the weekend.

Villa returned to winning ways in the Championship on Saturday afternoon with a 1-0 victory over Swansea at home.

Chelsea-owned striker Tammy Abraham scored the only goal of the match at Villa Park after just eight matches.

Nyland started in goal and played for the entire 90 minutes, and the 28-year-old goalkeeper has taken to Twitter to revel in the win for Villa against Swansea.

The Norway international – who joined Villa from FC Ingolstadt in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by The Birmingham Mail to be worth £1 million – has been criticised by Villa fans on occasions this season, as reported by HITC Sport here and here.

Nyland’s performance against Swansea, though, was very good and encouraging, and Villa fans were impressed with the display produced by the 28-year-old goalkeeper.
