It wasn’t quite enough for Liverpool Defender Kolo Toure, scoring a humiliating own goal, that cost his side dearly, versus relegation zone fodder Fulham. (Luckily for Toure, he was bailed out by Liverpool leaders Daniel Sturridge and Steven Gerrard, and the team won 3-2 on a last minute penalty kick)
Not content with just his own goal Toure went after Phil Dowde with a move that belongs in ice hockey or American football, not football.
Quite the interesting and enthralling Vine, eh? Way to go Toure, hurting his own cause and that of Liverpool. This was nasty. I’m sure Liverpool Manager Brendan Rogers is going to let him have it for these two bone-headed mistakes he made today at Craven Cottage. Luckily for him the team won dramatically at the finish.
