Liverpool duo Mamadou Sakho and Kolo Toure pose for serious snap

Liverpool defenders Mamadou Sakho and Kolo Toure

Mamadou Sakho brought some humour to an otherwise emotional day at Anfield after the Liverpool defender uploaded a funny photo with Kolo Toure ahead of 3-1 loss to Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The France international didn't feature against the Eagles as Liverpool suffered a disappointing defeat on Steven Gerrard's final appearance in front of his fans at Anfield.

Sakho, who uploaded a series of photos pitchside before and after the game, posted a snap with Ivory Coast international Kolo Toure on the coach to Anfield before the loss.

The former Paris Saint-Germain star returned from an absence to help Liverpool go on a 13-game unbeaten run in the Premier League before a 2-1 defeat by Manchester United in March.

The France international, who moved to Liverpool from Paris Saint-Germain in 2013, picked up a hamstring injury against Blackburn Rovers in the FA Cup.

Sakho has made 26 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions this term despite a number of injury problems throughout the campaign.
