Mamadou Sakho 'happy to get back' on the pitch after playing 90 minutes for Liverpool's Under 23s

Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho has taken to social media to express his joy at returning to action.

The Frenchman was given a rare run out at Prenton Park for Liverpool Under 23s on Wednesday but could not prevent the youthful Reds from losing 2-1 to Wolfsburg Under 23s in their opening Premier League International Cup clash.

Despite the result, Sakho was still happy to get back on the pitch and posted a positive message and collage of his recent activity on Instagram.
