Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli took pride in beating his teammate Raheem Sterling in a game of ping pong by posting an image of the winger's punishment.

The England international may be impressing on the pitch, but his skills at ping pong have let him down recently after losing to Jose Enrique.

The Spaniard introduced the punishment of players having to sit underneath the table if they lose a game of ping pong.

It appears that Sterling lost again after Balotelli posted an image of the 19-year-old on Instagram, with the caption: "@31sterling !!!!! Loool ops! Mario still the Champion in ping pong!"
