65 FK goals. Film named after his technique. 93rd min WC qualifier. 15cm accuracy from 25+ yards.
David Beckham's free-kick technique — right-footed curl over and around walls with pinpoint accuracy — is the most imitated in the history of the sport, inspiring the 2002 Bollywood film "Bend It Like Beckham." His free-kick for England against Greece in World Cup qualification (2001), struck in the 93rd minute to draw 2–2 and qualify, is the most celebrated English free-kick in history. He scored 65 career direct free-kick goals. His ability to place the ball within 15 centimetres of the corner of the goal from 25+ yards was consistent across a 20-year career.
