I can't control my emotions on the pitch - Chelsea star

Chelsea centre forward, Diego Costa admits
he finds it hard to contain his emotions on the
pitch if things do not go his way as he hates
to lose.
The Spain forward has been booked three
times in the Blues’ first four Premier League
games this season and has often been
criticised for his attitude on the pitch.
But the 27-year-old feels his occasionally
petulant display on the pitch is all down to his
desire to win.
The Brazil born striker is appearing
rejuvenated under the leadership of new
Chelsea boss, Antonio Conte.
Costa told Chelsea’s official magazine, “When
we go to the pitch, we want to win, that’s all
we want to do. And when the game finishes,
if you win, you go home happy.”
“If I lose a game, it’s a different frame of
mind when I finish the match. I go home and I
feel upset. So you always have to know that
you are going to leave everything on the pitch,
every drop of sweat, to help the team win the
game.
“I don’t like losing, I don’t like to be in a
losing position and I show this a lot. I
demonstrate on the pitch.
“I believe my colleagues feel the same about
losing, but everyone shows it differently on
the pitch and I show a lot of spirit in not
wanting to lose a game. We always have to
show our character on the pitch, and I show
my feelings.”
