Vines: Diego Costa suspended? No problem, Didier Drogba’s got this

Homesport

What do you do if your top goalscorer has been ruled out with suspension? Simple, make sure you have Didier Drogba in the wings ready to step in.

Diego Costa has been in lethal form for the league leaders this season. The Spaniard has found the net 11 times in 11 matches for the Blues. However, Costa had to sit out tonight's key clash with Tottenham Hotspur through suspension. He was ruled out of the match after picking up his fifth booking of the season against Sunderland at the weekend. It seems Didier Drogba has seized the opportunity and has turned on the form in his return to the starting lineup. Check out his stellar assist for Eden Hazard's opening goal.

The Ivorian powerhouse opened his own tally with a superb finish in the first half to double Chelsea's lead.
