Diego Costa Potentially Prohibited from Playing 12 Games

DBasia.news –  Diego Costa, Atletico Madrid striker, has a reputation as Europe’s top temperamental bomber and has never been afraid of being involved in conflicts with opposing defenders.

In the match against Barcelona, Sunday (7/4)  WIB, Costa also continued to cause a problem and received a red card by referee Gli Manzano on 27 minutes. This time, the 30-year-old player was expelled not for bickering with the Blaugrana player but rather he was alleged to have insulted the mother of the 35-year-old referee.

If truly guilty, Costa will likely miss the Los Rojiblancos until the end of the 2018/19 season. As through a report reported by Football Espana, the former Chelsea player was threatened with getting a ban on playing as many as 12 matches.

Nevertheless, the problem of Costa’s red card is not entirely clear. His teammate, Jan Oblak claimed that anger from Costa came out because he was only accused of saying the words that were being told to Gil Manzano.
