Cape Town - Pablo Zabaleta apologised to Manchester City fans after seeing red against Chelsea but hit out at Diego Costa's conduct.
Zabaleta was dismissed after he was shown a second yellow card in the 66thminute following a challenge on the Chelsea striker.
The Argentine defender, who was brought back into the starting lineup, took to Twitter to apologise to the club's fans.
However, Zabaleta posted another tweet which showed Costa angrily grabbing the defender by the neck.
What do you make of the incident? Should Costa have joined Zabaleta in seeing red?
