Diego Costa in Kuwait


Most Barclays Premier League footballers spent their summer months on the beach, but it seems Chelsea striker Diego Costa never gets tired of fighting off opponents and scoring goals. Costa has been in Kuwait, playing in a bizarre five-a-side tournament in which he scored five goals against a Nottingham Forest side before nutmegging men in sumo suits in another odd game.The Spain international is taking part in the Al-Roudan Tournament, which includes upwards of 80 teams with former Chelsea flop Andriy Shevchenko and Barcelona legend Carlos Puyol also playing

Costa - well known for his tendency to wind up opponents - wasn't taking the competition lightly though, and can be seen barging his rivals to the floor before using maximum force with a routine penalty among his five goals.His participation may have caused concern for manager Jose Mourinho, who has seen his star striker miss out on games through injury all too often, but Costa came through unscathed before donning a ceremonial robe and waving to his fans around the pitch.The opposition in the futsal game were set to include legend of the sport Falcao - unrelated to Chelsea's new signing - but the 38-year-old signed by Forest's Kuwaiti owner Fawaz Al-Hasawi missed out through injury. link
