Zenit St Petersburg star Hulk said he blew kisses at supporters during Saturday's game at Spartak Moscow due to racist abuse from the stands.
Hulk, 29, complained earlier this summer that he experienced racism in "almost every game" in Russia and he said his gesture in the final moments of Saturday's 2-2 draw at Spartak was his way of dealing with the abuse.
"Unfortunately, there is still the same situation with racism from the stands," the Brazil international said on the club's official website.
"I'm not going to react -- I've already talked about this -- so I keep blowing kisses to them all and providing my answer with my performances on the pitch. These things aren't worth discussing."
Torpedo Moscow were ordered to play two home games behind closed doors as punishment after fans directed monkey chants at Hulk during a game in March.
His club manager Andre Villas-Boas had said at the time: "It's a disgrace to football, it's a disgrace to the public. That's something that shouldn't happen."
Hulk deserves a standing ovation for his admirable reaction and composure to the racist abuse of fans at Spartak Moscow.
