Chelsea forward Diego Costa joined legendary company when he scored the Blues' opener in their demolition of Middlesbrough on Monday night.

The Spanish international scored his 20th goal of the season, which made him only the third Chelsea player to score 20 or more goals in two seasons.

The feat brings him along side Chelsea great's Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Didier Drogba.

Costa currently sits third behind Harry Kane (21) and Romelu Lukaku (24) in the Premier League Golden Boot standings.
