Free kick from about 30 meters, the opponents prepared to cross from the left leg, meanwhile Greg Stewart had a different plan for this and surprised everyone with a beautiful shot. The Scot’s goal will likely be one of the most beautiful in the current Indian Super League season.
Crank it up like Beckham
When we talk about giving the ball amazing spin, we have David Beckham in front of our eyes. Once upon a time, an Englishman did it the best in the world. He used his excellent right leg, which could curl the ball so much that it completely confused the opposing goalkeeper. Apparently Greg Stewart was spying on Beckham, because he had an equally interesting shot a few days ago.
The Scotsman scored one of the goals in the Indian Super League game between Kerala Blasters and Jamshedpur. Stewart took his team into the lead already in the 14th minute after taking an unusual free kick.

The 31-year-old was doing a fixed part of the game from around 30 meters. The opposing team expected a cross from the left, with the ball departing from the goal. The goalkeeper’s big mistake was to put just one player in the wall, and also put everything on one card and prepare for the cross. Probably the intention of the goalkeeper was to try to catch the throw-in, but Stewart quickly rebuked this behavior.
The former Rangers FC player noticed a gap on the left side of the goal and, without thinking for a long time, sent the ball towards the closer post. The ball on the way took a huge spin and hit the post. We can admit that the shot was untenable, but nevertheless the Kerala Blasters defense should have given a little more attention to the set pieces around their penalty area.
