Video: Robbie Keane proves once and for all that he’s better than Steven Gerrard

King Keano

When it comes to accurately kicking balls at pickup trucks, Steven Gerrard is no match for Robbie Keane.

The former Liverpool teammates, reunited at LA Galaxy, have been battling it out in a series of truck-based football challenges with LA Galaxy for the last number of weeks,

Keane and Gerrard’s heightened ability to kick footballs at vehicles saw them knock teammates Baggio Husidic and A.J. DeLaGarza out of the running in the previous rounds.

And then there were two.

For the final challenge, the MLS stars had to spray a pass towards a moving Chevrolet. A point was awarded for hitting any part of the truck before the ball touched the ground while they scored three points if the player standing on the back managed to catch it in the air.

Those of you who have been following the series on YouTube will not be surprised that Keane’s truck-seeker of a pass came good again to claim bragging rights over Gerrard.
