The Liverpool first team's annual Christmas visit to Alder Hey Children's Hospital helped put a smile on young patients' faces on Thursday – take a closer look with our video recap.

Manager Jürgen Klopp, captain Jordan Henderson and the rest of the senior players spent the afternoon on the wards in West Derby, chatting to the youngsters they met and giving out festive gifts.

There was even a spontaneous rendition of ‘Jingle Bells’ – featuring the boss on drums and the skipper on guitar – to raise spirits at a special time of the year.
