Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone was delighted for Diego Costa after scoring in victory at Real Mallorca.

Costa hasn't had it easy in front of goal lately and his coach is hoping the this strike will lead to more.

"We know that strikers live on goals," Simeone said after the game.

"It's very good for him and for the team.

"I'm happy because he needed the goal. He's one of our most important players in attack and if our forwards play well then it's easier to win."
