There are many ways to celebrate a championship. You can get a tattoo, upload images on Instagram, or in the case of former Chelsea forward Diego Costa, you drive around the busy streets of Brazil in a tractor.

Costa returned to Brazil in 2021 to play for Atletico Mineiro, which also has former Brazilian national team forward Hulk on the roster. Costa’s arrival at Atletico Mineiro has been a success as the club won the domestic double winning the Brazilian title and Copa Do Brasil.

To mark the occasion the forward got on board a tractor and drove around the streets with his kids. The video was uploaded to Costa’s Instagram account and was well received by his many followers.
