That's outrageous, Douglas.
During the half-time interval, Costa nonchalantly dazzled fans by producing a silky piece of skill complete with a very, very naughty first touch.
Filth. Pure filth.

Costa eventually entered the fray on Saturday as Juventus beat Parma 2-1 thanks to goals from Mario Mandzukic and Blaise Matuidi.
'The Old Lady' still await a competitive goal from Cristiano Ronaldo who has gone three Serie A games without scoring, following his £100 million transfer from Real Madrid in the summer.
Anyway, Costa is not the only Brazilian with an outrageous touch. Enter; Marcelo.
The Real Madrid star is arguably the best left-back in world football. What separates him from others is his utterly ridiculous first touch.

One of the best examples of his first touch happened during a training session.
Marcelo is casually talking to his teammate when the ball is pinged to him from behind.
Without even looking at the ball, he lifts his leg and stops the ball dead in its tracks in magical fashion.
He's got eyes in the back of his head, right...?!

And, for good measure, here's another moment of brilliance. This time on international duty with Brazil.
Over the years, Marcelo has left fans in awe of his first touch.
Who's got the better first touch between Costa and Marcelo?
