HULK rolled back the years with an absolute rocket of a free kick over the weekend.
The former Porto striker is back plying his trade in his native Brazil with Atletico Mineiro.
And he scored the pick of the goals in their 5-0 demolition of Vasco de Gama last Saturday.
In the 32nd minute, Hulk – real name Givanildo Vieira de Sousa – stepped up to take a free kick from just shy of 40 yards.
And the 39-year-old – who is married to his ex-wife’s niece – unleashed a ferocious left-footed drive which sailed past the keeper and into the bottom corner.
The Mineirao erupted as Hulk’s smashing drive hit the back of the net and put the home side 2-0 up.

Another said: “At 39 years and still scoring wonder goals. Impressive.”
And another said: “What in the Roberto f*****g Carlos is that goal?? Insane!”
One remarked: “This man got the maddest strike ever.”
Another chimed in: “Wow! The incredible hulk. What a goal.”
Hulk and his Mineiro team-mates will be back in action on January 11, welcoming Betim to the Mineirao.
