Brilliant.
For once, the script is going according to plan and Robbie Keane has scored his 68th goal for the Republic of Ireland.
This strike against Oman brings him level with German legend Gerd Muller as he winds up his long and distinguished career in green.
It’s his fairytale moment. What a strike.
