Robbie Keane scored a goal of the season contender in the US last night

A double for Robbie – but LA Galaxy lose 5-2 at home to the Portland Timbers.

IRELAND LEARNED THEIR Euro 2016 play-off fate yesterday — and if they’re to beat Bosnia-Herzegovina, they could do with a few moments of magic like this from Robbie Keane.

The Ireland skipper was back in action last night as the LA Galaxy suffered a shock 5-2 defeat at home against the Portland Timbers.

The highlight of the night came in the 36th minute when Juninho angled a pass over the Timbers defence and Keane let it bounce once before looping a volley past goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey.

Keane did grab a second late on — his 19th of the season — but it wasn’t enough.

The Galaxy are now likely to need a win in their final game against Sporting Kansas City to guarantee their place in the postseason.

Alan Judge will get his Ireland chance soon if he keeps scoring goals like this
