Liverpool defender Joel Matip has hailed Chelsea striker Diego Costa as one of the toughest players in the league this season.
The Spaniard has been in sensational form this season as he has already scored 10 goals for the Blues across all the competitions. The 28-year old has also scored the solo goal against Liverpool in their 2-1 defeat to the Reds.
When asked about his most challenging opponent, Matip said: “There are a lot of tough players in this league. He didn’t play well against us, but Costa is a great player.”
