Maupay trolls Tottenham fans with darts celebration before clash with Maddison

The Bees went a goal ahead at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday night when Maupay bundled the ball into the net.

While Ivan Toney's effort was saved, Maupay was there on the follow-up to tap in ahead of Cristian Romero and open the scoring for the Bees.

And in classic Maupay fashion, he taunted Spurs by running off and copying Maddison's celebration.

In front of the fans, he pulled out a dart-throwing celebration that Maddison has made popular this season.

And the Tottenham star was not happy, racing up to Maupay and slapping him on the back of the head.
