Some Aston Villa fans on Twitter are mocking Leeds United central defender Diego Llorente.

Villa got the better of Leeds 1-0 at Elland Road in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Anwar El Ghazi’s goal in the opening minutes of the first half proved to be the difference between the two sides.

While the first half was quite a competitive and entertaining affair, the game fizzled out after the break, as the Villans went on the defensive mode.

On the balance of play, Villa were the better team, and Dean Smith’s side also defended well and kept the Leeds attackers at bay.

There was one particular incident in the first half that has amused Villa fans on Twitter.

Towards the end of the first half, Llorente seemed to be in pain and was rolling on the floor, but he shot up to his feet and squared up to Ollie Watkins.

Such incidents are quite common in football, but it still left some Villa fans amused, and they have taken to Twitter to mock Llorente.
