Diego Costa has scored his second goal in two matches since returning to Atletico Madrid, but he was promptly sent off for his celebrations on Saturday. Former Chelsea striker Costa put Atletico 2-0 up in their derby clash with Getafe at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday when he slotted home a low cross from the right in the 68th minute. He then rushed off to celebrate among the Atletico fans behind the goal, but when he returned to the pitch he was shown a second yellow card by the referee.
