Diego Costa: We want to do something great again

Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa scored the opening goal as Spain thrashed Argentina 6-1 at the Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday. He appeared to hurt himself in a collision with Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero while scoring but said: "I think I will surely be fit to play Sunday, I took a blow, I'll put ice on it and that's all."

The player had not scored since last June for Spain. "During the nine months I went without being called up by Spain I felt bad. I went six months without playing as you all know, but I knew that if I started playing again I would have a chance of returning. And I'm happy to be here."

Costa added: "It's a nice fight that we have (to be picked) and it's important that if you are called on to play you can score and help the team. There's two months to go and if I do well the normal thing would be that they call me up. I'll do everything I can to be there.

"This national team wants to do something great again. There is a good team for the World Cup."
