A long-range second-half strike by Hulk helped Shanghai SIPG beat FC Seoul 1-0 in the Asian Champions League yesterday.
Hulk, who signed for over USD50 million in June 2016, made the difference for the Chinese Super League team eight minutes into the second half. “We had to work hard for the win,” Hulk said.
Six minutes after Hulk’s goal, Seoul was awarded a penalty after striker Dejan Damjanovic was fouled by Shanghai’s He Guan, who was sent off. But Yan Junling saved Damjanovic’s kick.
“We had a man sent off but we competed well until the end,” Shanghai coach Andre Villas-Boas said.
