“We earnestly request that a higher authority takes this matter seriously,” the statement read.<\/p>\n
“We also hope that relevant departments, Shanghai sporting event management and Shanghai SIPG FC would handle the case in a fair and impartial manner, publish the evidence and let the truth be known.”<\/p>\n
The Brazilian had denied claims he was involved physically with Yu.<\/p>\n
“Unfortunately they [Guizhou Zhicheng] are trying to abuse my image. The coach of the adversary team is accusing me of aggression. Where did he see it?” Hulk wrote on the social network\u00a0Weibo<\/em>.<\/p>\n “I didn’t behave violently in any way! I have my conscience clear. God knows it. I just want to do what I love most – is to play football!”<\/p>\n “I’m very happy in China. I like and respect all of the Chinese people.”<\/p>\n Li had said Hulk “punched our assistant coach Yu Ming and caused him to fall to the ground” after an argument in the tunnel.<\/p>\n After reviewing CCTV footage, Shanghai SIPG said the accusations were “inappropriate”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Shanghai SIPG forward Hulk has been accused of punching a Guizhou Zhicheng assistant and the latter want evidence released to the public.
