Luke "The Nuke" Littler managed to rile up Leeds United fans during his pulsating win over Nathan Aspinall in the Premier League Darts. This event marked the 14th night of his dominating campaign.
Facing off against his mentor and good pal Aspinall on a stage that didn't exactly welcome him warmly, Littler, a die-hard Manchester United fan, was booed upon his arrival and heard jeers during his performance. How about that for friendly competition?!
Littler, unbothered and unapologetic, couldn't shake off the heckling from the home crowd. The fervent spectators roared on Aspinall, while Littler dealt with a barrage of taunts from the enraged crowd. It's safe to say the atmosphere was tense.
The pair struggled in the eighth leg, with "The Asp" holding a narrow 4-3 lead. As double trouble struck, both players stumbled to secure the win, to the frustration of the crowd. But Littler rose to the occasion, nailing a double ten to bring the score level at 4-4. The Man Utd fan capitalized on the moment and flashed a hilarious crybaby gesture to his haters in the crowd. Is it wrong to admit that we kind of enjoyed this little display of sportsmanship?
