CHELSEA STRIKER DIEGO Costa was fortunate to avoid punishment after appearing to deliberately stamp on Emre Can’s ankle tonight in the Londoners’ League Cup semi-final with Liverpool.

It is not the first time Costa has been the subject of controversy this season, and he was also involved in a tunnel altercation with Jordan Henderson after the first-leg encounter between the sides.

He was later arguably unlucky not to win his side a penalty, following a clumsy challenge by Martin Skrtel.
