Special Olympics meet Robbie Keane and LA Galaxy Team
19 February 2015; LA Galaxy striker Robbie Keane turned a training session into a field of dreams for Special Olympics Ireland footballers yesterday. The Irish football captain, who is in town to face Shamrock Rovers this weekend, invited the athletes to a skills session where they got to meet several of the LA Galaxy players. This is the second time Keane has trained with the athletes. The soccer legend and his wife Claudine are supporting the 88 Irish athletes heading to the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles. He is urging the country to get behind them and help raise the €440,000 target to fund the trip.
