Keane showed off his hurling skills during the show.

Roy Keane’s hurling skills were displayed during The Overlap live in Dublin.

The former Manchester United captain went along to Croke Park with Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher as part of an upcoming episode of The Overlap.

Fans at a live show at the 3Arena on Thursday night were shown a preview of the trio’s trip to the famous stadium, and their attempts at playing hurling. The episode will air later this year.

In the clip, Keane showed off his impressive hurling skills. The Corkman effortlessly struct the sliotar over for a point at Croke Park.

Kilkenny hurler TJ Reid was at Croke Park to help the trio, and it is fair to say that Carragher and Neville need more practice.

You can watch a clip from the show below.

Keane brought Neville and Carragher down to his childhood home in Cork, and they dropped into his former clubs Rockmount and Cobh Ramblers as part of the show.

They stopped off at Croke Park before the live show in Dublin, where Paul McGrath was a special guest.

At the start of the Overlap live, Keane was asked how he felt to be back home.

He quipped that he wasn’t home as he was in Dublin and Cork is his home. The joke brought a big laugh from the live crowd at the 3Arena.
