Bend It Like Beckham

You control a single player taking free kicks. With your mouse, you aim the shot and adjust the power. The main goal is to curve the ball around a wall of defenders and beat the goalkeeper. You learn to put spin on the ball, watching its trajectory arc. Sometimes you have to chip it over a player's head. The game starts easy, but the angles get tighter as you progress. It feels like solving a quick physics puzzle with your mouse.
