VIDEO: Philippe Coutinho misses out in Keepy Uppy challenge
LIVERPOOL midfielder Philippe Coutinho showed his prowess doing kick ups with a tennis ball, but he was outshone by Jordan Henderson.
The Brazilian was attempting the challenge at Melwood, and looked on course to beat Henderson's record of 77 but felt short on 63.
Luis Suarez has also tackled the challenge, but he proved not to be as adept as the Brazilian maestro.
Coutinho's first effort produced 44 kick ups but he was content just to use his right foot

He has shown some silky skills on the pitch too and has been instrumental since joining the club in January.
