And he proved it by drop-kicking a ball across a massive garden into a basketball net on the other side.

That sparked a big celebration as Keane fist-pumped the air with a huge smile on his face.

But now aged 42, the Irishman decided against performing his trademark cartwheel celebration.

Fans were in awe and Keane’s former Republic of Ireland team-mate Shay Given wrote: “Class you never lose it.”

Top Gear presenter Paddy McGuinness added: “Another day at the office. 👌”

One fan joked: “Kinda disappointed in the celebration… I was waiting for the cartwheel and guns! 😂”

And another doubted if it was real, saying: “Real or fake? Be honest bro 😂”

Liverpool legend Ian Rush also complimented the ex-Reds star by posting two clapping emojis in the comments.
