Robbie Keane surprised an adorable little kid on the Ellen Show

It’s like little Domhnall all over again.

LITTLE KAI APPEARED on the Ellen Show yesterday and was surprised by his favourite team, LA Galaxy.

The lads, including our very own Robbie Keane, showed up to offer him a contract after he appeared on the show to sing Cake By The Ocean by DNCE.

Speaking about his big dream in life, he said:

I really want to be a soccer player when I grow up and to play for LA Galaxy, I got to see them, I got to walk out on the field with Zardes and at the end he gave me his jersey from the game and it was wet.

Sure enough they were all waiting for him backstage, in true Ellen style.

His little face!

Look at that name though… how did Robbie keep a straight face?

    Really don’t understand the constant knocking of Robbie Keane. An Irish legend. His International scoring record won’t be touched for a long time. A great servant to Irish football.

    Clearly not by the thumbs. 67 international goals. Incredible goal scorer. Do your homework.

    Can’t knock his commitment and his goal scoring record. Wonder do the same idiots above remember 2002 World Cup , Quinn’s header on and Robbies half volley to get a late goal against the Germans.

    The kids name is Kai Langer. I’m sure there’s a joke somewhere there but I’m far too classy to make it.

    LA Galaxy captain, voted MLS Player of the Year, finished runner up prior to that, ~100 goals in 150 games. If the kid was to know anybody in the MLS, it would be Keane.

    What a cute kid.. Loved the way he closed his eyes as he did that song. He was super chuffed that he got to meet his hero’s all over again. How cool was that! Great show..
