Diego Costa headbutts opponent, but iconic Premier League player avoids red card – Daily Star

Diego Costa, a 35-year-old footballer, has returned to his native Brazil after playing for the Spanish national team. Despite the passage of time, it seems that his aggressive nature has not changed, as he recently headbutted an opponent shortly after joining Gremio. During his time at Stamford Bridge, Costa gained popularity for his aggressive playing style, which posed a challenge for defenders. In a recent incident, Gremio was losing 1-0 on the brink of half-time when Costa engaged in a physical altercation with defender Benjamin Gazzolo, leading to a confrontation involving players from both teams and the referee.

This incident led to a furious reaction from the opposing team, but Costa was only shown a yellow card, which left many surprised, including himself. Despite this, Gremio went on to be defeated 2-0, with the visitors scoring their second goal shortly after Costa’s incident. Costa received a warm welcome from fans when he returned to Stamford Bridge in 2022 while playing for Wolves.
