Hulk, Adriano ruled out of Brazil-Colombia friendly

Barcelona defender Adriano and Zenit St Petersburg forward Hulk have been ruled out of Brazil\'s international friendly against Colombia next week with injuries. Hulk suffered a hip strain during the Russian team\' s 2-1 victory over Rostov on Friday while Adriano tore his right adductor muscle in Barcelona\' s 3-1 victory over Celta Vigo on Saturday. St Petersburg officials anticipate Hulk to be out for at least 10 days and Adriano is not expected to return until the end of the month. The Barcelona player\' s absence leaves Brazil coach Mano Menezes without his 2 preferred left-backs, with Real Madrid\' s Marcelo also sidelined by a foot injury. Brazil\' s clash with Colombia will be played on November 14 in New Jersey, United States.
