Former Wales, Everton and Swansea City star Ashley Williams charged by FA after incident at kids football match

Former Wales, Swansea City and Everton defender Ashley Williams will contest an FA charge over an incident at his son's Under-12s football match.

The ex-Wales skipper has been charged with improper conduct and violent, threatening behaviour following the altercation in the East Manchester Junior Football League match between Corinthians and his son's side TSC, according to the Daily Mail. The match, which took place last month, was subsequently abandoned, the report says.

The alleged incident, which is reported to have been captured on video camera, is said to have been sparked by a clash between players on the pitch, with Williams then becoming involved with another adult.
