Liverpool attacker Luis Suarez continues to lead the race for the European Golden Shoe with a two-goal advantage over Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo, while Barcelona's Lionel Messi has closed the gap to the top three.
Madrid were not in action over the weekend, meaning Suarez was able to pull one strike further ahead of Ronaldo thanks to his first-half goal in the 3-2 win over Norwich.
Costa's late penalty for Atletico against Elche sees him keep pace with the top three, while Messi's free-kick winner against Athletic Bilbao draws him back to within four goals of leader Suarez.
Jonatan Soriano's hat-trick for Red Bull Salzburg against Admira Wacker Modling takes him closer to Messi's points tally, while Torino striker Ciro Immobile moved level with Daniel Sturridge after netting in the thrilling 3-3 draw with Lazio.
