Diego Costa scored his second goal of the game in the second half of the Group B clash between Portugal and Spain, drawing the tie level.

Costa, who had levelled the game at 1-1 in the first half, came up trumps for Spain again after half-time. Spain were 2-1 down, after a Cristiano Ronaldo brace, but Costa brought his own tally to two just after half-time.

In the 55th minute, 'La Roja' won a free-kick in the centre of the pitch, around 35 yards out, and it was David Silva who took the set piece.

The Manchester City man dinked a lovely ball in towards the back post, where Sergio Busquets nodded it back into the mixer.

Waiting in the box was Costa, who buried it, converting from close range to level the game.
