Arsenal fans threaten to boycott coffee chain over Diego Costa antics

A group of Arsenal supporters have called on their fellow fans to boycott the Costa Coffee chain after Diego Costa's antics led to Gabriel Paulista getting sent off at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Costa was confronted by Gabriel during the Blues' 2-0 victory over the Gunners after the Chelsea striker whacked Laurent Koscielny in the face with a swinging arm.

Gabriel was eventually sent off for kicking out at Costa, who in turn was given a caution by referee Mike Dean.

With numerous Arsenal supporters feeling angered by the decision, Twitter fan account Our Lot in Block 5 has urged everyone to avoid Costa Coffee until Gabriel serves his suspension.

A tweet read: "@gpaulista5 @ourlotpod join the #costaboycott buy your coffee at #starbucks or #pretamanger until Gabriel returns."
