Luke Littler has done it again, claiming Night 8 of the Premier League Darts with a thrilling 6-4 triumph over Michael van Gerwen in Berlin.
The teenage sensation delivered two sensational 170 checkouts in the final three legs to seal victory in front of 12,000 fans at the Uber Arena.
It was pure drama from start to finish. Littler raced into an early three-leg advantage, only for Van Gerwen to battle back and level at 3-3.
The 19-year-old regained control and produced the first of his maximum finishes to move within touching distance of victory at 5-3.

Van Gerwen broke back, but Littler responded with another Big Fish checkout to pocket the £10,000 winner's prize.
Littler's route to the final showcased exactly why he's the world No 1. He dispatched Stephen Bunting 6-3 in the quarter-finals, barely putting a foot wrong throughout.
Former World Matchplay finalist Wayne Mardle said on Sky Sports: "Luke Littler was very, very good against Stephen Bunting.
"There was only two trebleless visits and that meant that Stephen had nothing to jump on."
The semi-final brought another meeting with Gerwyn Price, and Littler made it three wins in a row against the Welshman with a commanding 6-4 victory, posting a superb 108 average.
