The brother of Diego Costa isn't surprised seeing the Chelsea striker in suspension trouble in England.

Diego is serving a three-match retrospective ban after his clash with Arsenal defender Gabriel last week.

"This is not something new. It is always the same old story. It is difficult for Diego to change his lifestyle," Jair Costa told The Sun.

"He easily loses his temper and always ends up fighting when he plays football. As brothers, we have always been close, but we were fighting for football because we were both passionate and we were trying to be the best.

"He will never be beaten and as a child, when his team loses or he disagrees on a foul, it turns into an impossible rage ending with quarreling with his opponents."
