Chelsea continued their impeccable run in the Premier League as they won their eleventh straight game with a 1-0 win against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday.

The Blues once again had attacking talisman Diego Costa to thank for the win, as he scored the lone goal of the game to secure the all important victory for his team.

After a cagey first 40 minutes, the match burst into life when Costa found himself on the receiving end of an immaculate ball played by Cesar Azpilicueta. The 27-year-old still had to apply the finishing touches, and he duly delivered, with a composed header that beat Wayne Hennessey all ends up in the Palace goal.

It was also Costa’s 50th goal for the club in all competitions. Take a look at the Spain international reach the landmark:
