Revealed: What Cabaye said to Costa

By virtue of the fact that he has picked up seven yellow cards and a three-game ban in his first eight months with Chelsea, you could say that Diego Costa is a fiery character.

But the 26-year-old striker looked a little more riled than usual on Wednesday following the Blues’ Champions League elimination by PSG, where he and Yohan Cabaye had to be separated at full time.

If trauma has caused you to forget everything that went on throughout that rollercoaster two hours, then here’s a quick reminder of the incident:

The Shed Ender has since waited with bated breath for details of the scuffle to emerge, asking itself the following questions: What happened? What was said? How many teeth would Cabaye have left had it not got broken up?

Well, we can answer at least two of those questions now as L’Equipe journalist Matt Spiro seemingly has the answers:

Okay so it isn’t as juicy as what Marco Materazzi said to Zinedine Zidane, or what Luis Suarez allegedly said to Patrice Evra, but it’s nice to know what sparked the altercation.

But we still want to know how many teeth Cabaye would have left so let us know in the comments section below.
