Diego Costa hit a superb hat-trick as Chelsea came from behind to beat Swansea City 4-2 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

The Brazil-born Spaniard, who joined the club from Atletico Madrid in the summer, took his tally for the season to seven as he inspired a Blues fight-back following John Terry’s early own goal, with debutant Loic Remy adding a debut goal in the dying moments, though there was time for Jonjo Shelvey to grab a late consolation for the visitors.
