Last Friday night, Robbie Keane scored the opening goal for Ireland against Latvia to set the Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane era off to a fine start.

That was the 33-year-old's 62nd goal in the green shirt which helps him keeps him safely ensconced as the fifth highest scoring European in international football history.

The LA Galaxy man will be on Off The Ball tonight to talk about fresh beginnings for Ireland and his MLS career.

John Giles will be on Thursday Night Football, while the Merseyside Derby and European football have pride of place on the Football Show from 9pm.

And of course Donn McClean will have all your horse racing tips for the weekend.

Tune into the show from 7pm.
