Manchester United fan and darts wonderkid Luke Littler has taken matters into his own hands after Brentford's Neal Maupay took a cheap dig at Scott McTominay following the 1-1 draw at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday night.
Maupay was involved in a tussle with McTominay late on in the second half as the Bees looked to mount a late assault on Andre Onana's goal. Both players were booked for the altercation by referee Simon Hooper, but as is usual with Maupay, the incident wasn't done there.
Taking to Instagram after the match, the Frenchman wrote, "This fan was desperate for my shirt [laughing face emoji]" alongside an image of them coming together.

The irony is that McTominay has scored more than Maupay this season, despite being a midfielder. However, Littler wasn't willing to let the former Brighton attacker get away with his jibe.
Responding to a post on Sportbible that covered Maupay's tongue-in-cheek comment, Littler wrote, "talks more than he scores [hands covering eyes emoji]".
It came after the post said, "Neal Maupay is winding up opposing players once more after posting about Scott McTominay becoming his latest 'fan' [red and white striped shirt and laughing face emojis] The Premier League is back and so is Maupay [laughing face emoji]".
Littler won his first-ever Premier League Darts night on Thursday after beating Nathan Aspinall in a brilliant final in Belfast. The teenage sensation has managed to keep up with his love of football while continuing to rise up in the sporting world, and he was welcomed to the club earlier this year.
