Fandi Ahmad's youngest son, Ilhan Fandi, scored an absolute beauty in a match in Sweden yesterday, helping his team clinch a 3-2 win over their opponents.

Little Ilhan, 11, showed off Fandi-like skills while playing against Swedish team IFK Gothernburg.

The teams are among 1,600 youth teams from all over the world competing in the Gothia Cup, an annual youth tournament dubbed the Youth World Cup.   

This year it is being held from July 14 to July 19. 

Singapore is represented by the under-11 team of the F-17 Academy - the football academy run by Ilhan's famous dad.

Of the three goals scored by the Singapore side, the stunner was Ilhan's scissors kick, which flew past the young IFK Gothenburg goalkeeper.

Watch the video of the sweet scissors kick here.

Does the video not remind you of someone?

The other two F-17 goals were scored by Marc Ryan Tan, 12 (one of two overage players allowed in the tournament), and Aqil Dany currently in Primary 5, were the other two scorers for F-17 Academy.

Aqil opened the scoring for the F-17 academy with a strike across the face of goal and Marc's was a nice strike across after a swift counter-attack.

Ilhan's elder brothers - Irfan, 16, and Ikhsan, 15 - are currently in Austria on a training trip with the Singapore Under-23 team.
