Diego Costa

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone, Diego Costa admits that being in a state of doubt the duel ahead of the Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona (02/04).

The Brazilian-born striker is still considered not fit enough to play. The tactician even mention that he would be surprised if his men could see it appear in the Camp Nou this evening.

"Seeing how he ended the practice, it is very difficult for me to see it (Costa) play tomorrow, but we will continue to wait and see how this develops, because there is still plenty of time left," said Simeone on TVE.

Costa far has scored seven goals in five appearances in the Champions League.
