Atletico have yet to beat Barca in 11 La Liga meetings since Diego Simeone took charge in 2011.
The intense session Costa underwent is not surprising considering the fact that 28-year-old has effectively not had a proper pre-season.
Costa has played a total of 231 matches and scored 122 goals in the past 5 years.
"We're happy because we have overcome a difficult test," said Barca coach Ernesto Valverde.
"Players always want more. If I have to change teams, I will do so without any problem," he admitted.
Los Blancos are on course to become the first team to defend their Champions League title!
Real are overwhelming favourites to make the final, but will Atletico throw a spanner in the works?
The 19-year-old left-back passed the checkup successfully without any problems.
Not a surprise, considering the Portuguese has scored 100 Champions League goals!
