Bhisham Parmar, 15, showed off some brilliant dead ball shooting skills by hitting the target twice to steer St Stanislaus (Bandra) to a fighting 2-1 win against a spirited Christ Church School (Byculla) in a boys’ U-16 Div-I match of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at the St Francis D’Assisi Ground, Borivli, on Wednesday.

Bhisham did a Bend it like Beckham, scoring the opening goal off a 30-yard free-kick in the fourth minute. His swerving shot had the stamp of class written all over, as it evaded the outstretched hands of Christ Church goalkeeper Jai Haria and dipped into the far corner of the net.
