Chelsea are lucky to have Diego Costa
In Costa’s first final for the Stamford Bridge outfit, the striker didn’t change his ways, playing the only way he knows – with added aggression.
The former Atletico Madrid star didn’t allow the ban he received after stamping Emre Can in the semi-final over Liverpool affect his performance – and it was his deflected shot that settled the contest.
The forward tangled with Nabil Bentaleb and Kyle Walker, with Spurs clearly wanting to unsettle the Spanish international, although teams will have to try a little harder to upset the big man.
