Djalminha: Spain style doesn't suit Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa

Former Deportivo La Coruna star Djalminha says Diego Costa doesn't suit Spain's style of play.

The Atletico Madrid striker flopped in the World Cup.

"He was under a lot of strain because of the Brazilian fans. They booed him a lot and I think he failed to fit in with Spain's style.

"Spain play a possession game, which doesn't suit Diego Costa's attributes," said Djalminha.
