Pekka Sihvola
Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox football biography Pekka Sihvola (born 22 April 1984) is a Finnish retired professional footballer who played as a forward. He previously played for FC Honka, FC Hämeenlinna, FC Lahti, Haka, MyPa and HIFK. He has also represented the Finland national football team.[1]
In 2004 Sihvola and fellow footballer from Hämeenlinna, Panu Autio, had a trial at C.D. La Serena playing at top level of Chilean football. They also trained with C.D. Magallanes playing in the third level. They would have been the first Finnish footballers ever to play in the Chilean football league, but they were never given a professional contract and they both returned to Finland.
Sihvola is a striker with a keen eye for goal. In September 2012 Sihvola attracted world-wide fame for a training video posted online in which he scored a blindfolded Rabona penalty.[2]
