Chelsea striker Diego Costa could face retrospective action despite denying accusations of biting Evertons Gareth Barry during Saturdays FA Cup quarter-final at Goodison Park. The Spain international was shown a yellow card early on in a 2-0 defeat for a foul on Barry and in the 84th minute, the pair clashed again after Costa retaliated to a challenge by the former England international.Costa pushed his face into Barrys neck and motioned as if to bite, but appeared to withdraw at the last moment and then embraced his opponent, who did not react. Referee Michael Oliver pulled out a second yellow card, followed by a red, as the Brazilian-born forward was sent off for the first time in his Stamford Bridge career.Costas denial, and an admission of regret, came late on Saturday through a Chelsea statement, which read: Diego spoke to club officials after the game and expressed regret over his reaction to the challenge from Gareth Barry that led to his red card, but Diego was also very clear that he did not bite him at any point during that altercation.Barry was dismissed minutes later for a second booking in a separate incident. Costa (c) is shown a red card by referee Michael Oliver during the English The FA is waiting on a report from Oliver, who was confronted by Costa when he sent the player off, but officials have told Sky Sports News HQ they are aware of the incident and are looking into it.Oliver will submit his match report within the next 24 hours and any decision to charge Costa would be made by the FA on Monday.Guus Hiddink and Roberto Martinez both shrugged off questions about the altercation at their post-match news conferences. Costa and Seamus Coleman compete for the ball I try to be fair in my judgement, I havent seen it and it is difficult for me to say yes or no, said Hiddink. Without seeing, I dont want to give judgement on this.(Costa) was chased a bit in the game. They went after him. They knew it. It is within the rules.As a referee, you must protect the situation but knowing and feeling the atmosphere - then comes the moment that I would like to give judgement (on) but I havent seen it.Hiddink was asked whether Costa should seek help for anger management and jokingly made reference to the 2003 film of the same name. Costa (1st L) of Chelsea walks off the pitch past Hiddink (2nd L) after the red card There are movies about that, I think, the Dutchman added. One movie with Jack Nicholson. Maybe we go and watch it together.I like him still going towards the edge but you also have to take into consideration he was desperate to play today.It would have been better to rest him but it is not the type of game you rest players.It is all the combination; not fully physically fit and all the provocations and he has to take responsibility for the incident.Everton manager Roberto Martinez, who was grateful to two moments of brilliance from striker Romelu Lukaku before the red cards to settle an otherwise disappointing tie, played down the incident. Everton manager Roberto Martinez felt the referee was right to send off Costa and Gareth Barry My interpretation is I dont think it was a key moment. It was an emotional game and rightly so, said Martinez.Diego Costa had a fighting spirit and I would like to praise the referee. The sending-off of Costa was right.The sending-off of Gareth Barry was right and the referee never allowed those emotions to stop the fluency.Whatever happens with Diego Costa, I am sure the two players shook it off. From where it was, he moved his head towards Gareth Barry and I lost sight of that action.I thought it was a second yellow. It was a moment that didnt have an impact on the scoreline.Martinez rejected the suggestion his players had targeted Costa.It is part of trying to do an interpretation as you want, he added.We matched each other well. None of my players fell into the focus of losing the game.

Cheap Titans Jerseys . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web. OAKLAND, Calif. -- Steve Kerr joked around on what became a post-mosh Monday, feeling some of the natural pressure before his Golden State Warriors get going at last with all the weight of trying to win another NBA championship on their star-studded shoulders.The reigning NBA Coach of the Year said he cut short practice given Kevin Durants jostling in the mosh pit at a Kanye West concert the previous evening.He got a great workout last night, Kerr said with a smile.Kanye performed at Oracle Arena, where KD will become THE show Tuesday night for the defending Western Conference champions. And MVP Stephen Curry, too, of course.We all have pressure. Thats a good thing, Kerr said Monday. The alternative is, `Maybe we can win 30 this year instead of 25. Who wants that? Unfortunately, a lot of the teams in the league have that, teams that are going through rebuilding stuff, and theyre trying to get where we are. So were in a really enviable position. We know how lucky we are to be together with this group. We understand the responsibility that comes with it, and thats fine. Its a good position to be in.A day away from his highly anticipated Warriors debut, Durant insisted he had no idea just how much daily interest Golden State would generate before the season even began.How much Durants every move would be intently watched -- whether it was his concert-going or riding the BART train to get around.I never had a chance to get to a show. I was always moving around, Olympics and traveling a lot, Durant said of attending Wests show. Im glad he came through here. I was telling all my friends. Ive always told them I wanted to get in a mosh pit. It was amazing.Durant had no concerns about anything going wrong with all those people in tight quarters.Im covered, man. Im covered by a higher power upstairs, no matter what happens, he said.Four months after squandering a 3-1 series lead and losing Game 7 of the NBA Finals to LeBron James and Cleveland, the Warriors are ready to start fresh without any thought on chasing thee regular-season wins record they now hold at 73.dddddddddddd. They will host San Antonio and Kerrs former coach and mentor, Gregg Popovich, on Tuesday night.Its the Spurs, so it makes it even more fun, Kerr said.Golden State also will honor TNT sideline reporter Craig Sager, who is fighting leukemia, with a special T-shirt for all fans at the opener.Kerr has said all along Durant would need time to adjust.Hes light years beyond where he was three weeks ago, Kerr said. Hes embracing the chaos, for sure.With Durant and so many new players, Kerr still expects everything to take time before the Warriors really start clicking. Kerr wasnt even on the bench for last seasons opener, missing the initial 43 games and a record 24-0 start while dealing with complications from a pair of back surgeries.Next week might be even bigger for Durant, whose former Oklahoma City Thunder visit on Nov. 3. Golden State rallied from 3-1 down to beat OKC in the Western Conference Finals.Durants departure was a big deal. It still is.I think theyre just looking for something to grab onto and make it a story, Durant said. We understand that. Thats one thing I actually didnt understand coming in here. Everythings going to be taken and used as a headline. Its definitely a learning experience for me not used to all this coverage around a team. Thats just part of the job.
