LA GALAXY WERE 4-0 winners over Toronto FC in the MLS last night with Robbie Keane bagging a hat-trick.
Irelandโs all-time top goalscorer fired a penalty into the top corner on 9 minutes before adding a second four minutes before half-time. On the hour-mark, the 34-year-old notched his six goal of the season after capitalising on a loose back-pass.
Sebastian Lletget wrapped up the result with a fourth just before the full-time whistle.
New signing Steven Gerrard was also introduced to the crowd at half-time ahead of a possible debut for the club in two weeksโ time against San Jose Earthquakes on 18 July.
Hereโs what the former England international had to say:
Absolutely terrible decision that has to be a red card , high speed neck high challenge to stop a goal scoring opportunity. Very generous refereeing for Galway in that first half
Coen was a lucky boy
Terrible decision!
That was one seriously dangerous challenge and he should have walked . The short conversation with linesman had me convinced he was gone.
Hurling > football
Lower viewing figures, less participating countiesโฆ..
Hoping for a Galway win, Kilkenny will shade it no doubt!!
So the location of the match is at Old Trafford?
When did Mick McCarthy lose his lovely quiff & when did he start managing Galway ?
Boring. Kilkenny too good again. Hurling becoming a joke.
Galway resorting to Dublin tactics and being facilitated by ref
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
You mean Kilkenny tactics?
Big time bottlers are Galway, not helped by some terrible refereeing
Galway canโt complain about refereeing, got 2 points from soft overcarrying decisions and should have had 14 men for the whole 2nd half
OMG Stick Wars !!
It was disgusting to see half of the Kilkenny crowd leave before the cup was presented, talk about arrogance.
Galway could have won it but the Cats โre the best for a reason, great second half display by them.
Maybe next year Galwayโฆ
Well done, Galway. A few stats! Galway all Ireland Intermediate champs, All Ireland Minor Champs, and 2nd best Senior team in the countryโฆand the Ladies to come yetโฆNot bad, I suggestโฆ
Keep it going, Galway.
Great Kilkenny team, no argument. But they will be stopped sometime!!
How can the 42 not get the full time score correct?
Great Galway display, against an indisputable set of Kilkenny legends. No doubt about that. But just remember a little stat (to the knockers!). Galway= all Ireland Intermediate champs, All Ireland Minor Champs and 2nd best Seniors in the country and all for 2015. And the Ladies Camogie has to come yet in the all Irelandโฆ Not bad stats? So, Galway, well done, a credit to yourselves. And under great leadership.
Man of the stadium: Messi
Jonny Ryan a legend
