BENGALURU: Four-and-a-half-year-old Aaron Raphael waits patiently, eyes focused on the tyre that is rolling across a few feet away and the football that is coming towards him. With the skills of a professional player, the child kicks the football through the tyre, and runs around in celebration — a trick shot that has won him the Toni Kroos Academy challenge held in January. This means Aaron gets a private training session with the Real Madrid star.
A student of Happy Valley School, Banashankari, Aaron’s Intsagram page is filled with trick shots he performs. From shooting down a bottle kept on a table at the far end of the room to placing the ball perfectly into a moving car’s boot, Aaron’s trick shots amuse and amaze the public.
