Neal Maupay has shared his verdict on how James Maddison reacted to his darts celebration against Tottenham Hotspur in Brentford’s recent defeat in North London.
Neal Maupay certainly knows how to push the buttons of opponents quite like few others in the Premier League. In fact, he is potentially one of the only players who seems to unite both sides of North London.
It was Maupay who injured Bernd Leno in 2020 before getting involved in a scrap with Matteo Guendouzi when Brighton faced Arsenal.

And the 27-year-old managed to annoy many Spurs fans, and James Maddison, by replicating Maddison’s celebration after giving Brentford the lead at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in January.
Tottenham had the last laugh on the night, with Ange Postecoglou’s side coming back to win 3-2 against the Bees.
Maddison poked fun at Maupay on Instagram after the victory. And Maupay has now commented on Maddison’s reaction in an interview with The Times.
“He took it really personally, it’s funny,” he said. “I threw a dart and he got so offended he posted my picture on his Instagram. But if I give a little something, I have got to be able to take it as well.”
