Video: Austrian forward Okotie's terrible "Hand of God" attempt against Brazil

Brazil played out an international friendly against Austria on Tuesday night which they won 2-1 in the end. Goals from PSG defender David Luiz and Roberto Firmino ensure a victory for the Selecao while Austria’s only goal of the game came from the penalty spot which was converted by Aleksandar Dragovic.

But the funniest moment of the night came during a set piece in the second half as substitute forward Rubin Okotie of Austria failed miserably while trying to replicate Diego Maradona’s “Hand of God” goal. The referee immediately noticed it and booked him for the handball. What was he thinking?

Here is the incident.
