Chelsea faced a tricky home fixture as they hosted an in-form West Bromwich Albion at Stamford Bridge. The match looked to be headed towards a 0-0 stalemate but Diego Costa had other plans in mind.

The Spaniard jostled for the ball near the right wing, won it, then went inside the box fighting the other defenders off, before slotting it past the opposition keeper from an acute angle. The goal not only gave Chelsea the lead, but the win too and reinstated their place at the top of the Premier League table.
