Joined Atletico Mineiro last summer
Diego Costa opened the scoring in Atletico Mineiro's 3-0 win over Corinthians with a thunderous strike from 30 metres out, breaking the deadlock at the Mineirao on Wednesday.
The former Atletico Madrid striker has mustered four goals and one assist in 10 Brazilian Serie A games so far this season, with his team currently topping the table.
After parting ways with Los Rojiblancos last January, Diego Costa didn't return to action until this summer, when he joined the Brazilian club to join forces with former Selecao international Givanildo Vieira de Sousa, known as Hulk, who is currently the league's top scorer.
Costa netted on his debut against Red Bull Bragantino and then also scored against Sport Recife, Ceara SC and Corinthians.
