VIDEO: Hulk misses penalty for Shanghai SIPG

The former Zenit forward had the opportunity to level the game for his side on Saturday but rolled his spot-kick past the post, much to his annoyance

Former Porto and Zenit forward Hulk was called upon by his Shanghai SIPG team-mates during their Chinese Super League meeting with Tianjin Quanjian on Saturday, as the away side were awarded a second-half penalty.

You'd have put your money on the Brazil international to hit the back of the net, too - or at least until he started his staggered run up to take the spot-kick.

Although he sent the goalkeeper the wrong way, Hulk swept the ball wide of the post, before looking around in search of someone to blame for the blunder.
