Luke Littler joins in with Manchester United chant

Luke Littler joined in with a Manchester United chant just moments before his Premier League victory.

The 17-year-old admitted he was in bad mood after watching backstage as the Red Devils suffered a dramatic late 4-3 defeat at Chelsea.

But his spirits were raised as the staunch United fan was serenaded with the famous 'we've seen it all, we've won the lot' chant before his walk on at the AO Arena in Manchester on Thursday night.

And Littler claimed a second successive weekly Premier League win, beating Gerwyn Price 6-3 in the final.

The teenage star, who enjoyed a maiden victory in Belfast last week, was happy to give United fans in attendance something to cheer about.

'We were watching backstage, we were winning 3-2 and we conceded a penalty and Cole Palmer scored and then he scored again,' Littler said.

'I was in a bad mood, I was like, 'I'm winning this now'. It gave me motivation.

'There were a few Manchester United fans on the walkout so I was glad to win.'

Price had thrown an epic nine-dart finish against Michael Smith in the semi-final, but was not good enough to get past the teenager, who was imperious in the final

Victory sends him to the top of the Premier League table as his star continues to burn bright following his breakthrough at the World Championship over Christmas.

Having already won titles at the Bahrain Masters, PDC Players Championship and Belgian Open, he is now all-but certain to qualify for the play-offs at the O2 in London.

'I just try and live my life as I have done so far,' he said. 'As a 17-year-old boy, I just know every week playing these guys I have looked up to, I just thrive off it.

'All I do is stay in my zone. I just do what I do.'
