Diego Costa And Oscar In Training Ground Bust-up

The Chelsea players Diego Costa and Oscar were involved in a training ground bust up when the midfielder roughly tackled the striker.  

 According to the Mirror, Oscar’s tackle on the striker during Thursday morning’s training led to Diego Costa confronting the striker which almost led to a full out brawl.

Teammates and coaches had to intervene to diffuse the situation which was getting out of hand.

Club sources say no punches were thrown, after a witness claimed midfielder Oscar was struck up to three times in the confrontation.

Blues coach Guus Hiddink was present during the altercation.

Oscar reportedly tackled Diego Costa close to his knee and the striker responded by chasing the midfielder, angrily complaining about the ferocity of the challenge and trying to wrestle the ball away from him.

Later during training, Diego Costa responded by lounging at Oscar which left the midfielder incensed and their team-mates stunned.

The pair then clashed, exchanging angry words before others came between them. Oscar reportedly came off considerably worse from the two tackles.

Oscar took to twitter and tweeted: “Those who are saying that me and Diego Costa fought today in training are lying. He is one of my best friends and we would never fight.”
