Liverpool's Steven Gerrard, Luis Suarez, Lucas Leiva in egg and spoon race

Liverpool stars Steven Gerrard, Luis Suarez and Lucas Leiva channelled their competitive instincts into a different sort of challenge when they took part in a session for Children In Need.

The trio visited Anfield Juniors to take on a number of activities with the youngsters, including an egg and spoon race, as part of the charity's initiative.

Each player was named the captain of a team of pupils, and while Gerrard leads his Reds on the pitch, Lucas came out on top with his team following a number of challenges.

"BBC Children in Need is a fantastic charity and it's great to come out and support the work that they do," said Gerrard.

The visit will be shown during Friday's nights Children In Need appeal show on the BBC.
