Nottingham Forest struck a significant blow in their unlikely bid to qualify for the Champions League as they ended Brentford’s unbeaten Premier League home record with a 2-0 win at the Gtech Community Stadium.
For 15 minutes inside Alexandra Palace on Saturday night, Luke Littler looked almost ordinary. And then, after finally edging into a hard-fought two sets to one lead against Ryan Meikle, he completed victory with perhaps the finest set of darts ever seen on a World Championship stage. Twice Littler almost hit a perfect nine-dart finish before romping through the decisive set in 11, 10, and then 11 darts at a dizzying average of more than 141. It was utterly extraordinary.
