Littler climbed back to the top of the Premier League table.

Luke Littler shut the boo boys up in style after claiming a sweet Premier League victory in Liverpool.

The 17-year-old has been a fans’ favourite since bursting onto the scene at the World Championship over Christmas but his antics on social media have not been well received on Merseyside.Littler is an avid Manchester United fan and has enjoyed goading bitter rivals Liverpool in recent weeks as their quadruple hopes have crumbled.

Littler, whose showmanship has increased as he gets used to life in the spotlight, was engaging with fans during his semi-final against Nathan Aspinall and that seemed to inspire him as he won four legs in a row to turn a 5-2 deficit into a 6-5 win, surviving five match darts. Victory – his fifth weekly in in 13 nights – sends Littler back to the top of the Premier League table and puts him on the brink of securing his place at the four-man play-offs at the O2 in London and he could not have chosen a better place to do it.
