Chelsea striker Diego Costa was present in the East Stand among the supporters to watch Chelsea take on Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The 27-year old striker, who has been missing from action due to a hamstring injury, patiently posed for pictures and gave autographs to Blues fans as he watched the 1-1 draw.

Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville was pleasantly surprised to see the gesture from the Brazil-born Spain international who left his seat at half-time before returning for the second half.

"You'd have thought they'd have got him a decent ticket. He's up in the gods," said Neville.

"It's good to see. You don't see a player sat up there in the crowd with the fans too often. He'll certainly endear himself to the Chelsea fans a lot more."
