Aston Villa centre-back James Chester is coming in for a bit of stick on Twitter.

The Wales international played 75 minutes for his country in China as Ryan Giggs’s side went down 1-0 to Uruguay.

Edinson Cavani’s tap-in on 49 minutes was enough to settle a close game, but the Aston Villa defender didn’t cover himself in glory for the goal it has to be said.

Chester was not close enough to the man who passed across goal for the unmarked Cavani to tap home, and Welsh fans on Twitter have been criticising the £8 million 2016 signing.

Chester has been bang in form for the Villans as of late and fans of the West Midlands side won’t particularly care if he struggled in an international friendly.

The 29-year-old former Hull City man scored in three successive games during the course of a week, and has been very decent in defence too.
