🧓 Hulk breaks into the top-5 oldest scorers in the Brasileirão

Hulk, at 40 years and 21 days old, has broken into the top-5 oldest scorers in the Brasileirão. Fluminense came from behind to defeat Palmeiras 3-2, with Hulk scoring the opening goal in the first half. This makes him the seventh oldest player to score in the Brasileirão during the 21st century. Hulk's age and signing from Atlético-MG had raised concerns among Fluminense fans, but this victory helped calm their nerves.

The striker has now scored three goals for the team, including his first in an official match at the Maracanã. Despite personal struggles and a decline in team performance under coach Luis Zubeldía, Hulk remains determined and believes better days lie ahead.
