Jude Bellingham and Luke Littler love James Maddison's jibe at Neal Maupay, but the Brentford man can't resist one last dig.
James Maddison and Neal Maupay took their beef to Instagram after a heated on-field clash and things still haven't calmed down.
Maupay lived up to his usual game against Tottenham, but failed spectacularly in a 3-2 defeat.
By scoring the first goal in the 15th minute, the Frenchman kicked off Maddison's dart-throwing celebration in front of the crowd.
That would have been enough of a story with Spurs coming back and leaving Maupay red-faced, but Maddison made sure to add some extra flavour.
Grabbing the striker after his celebration, things got heated as they wrapped their hands around his neck and narrowly avoided yellow cards.
Maddison had the last laugh and made the most of it in front of his 1.9 million Instagram followers, posting Maupay's celebration, then himself celebrating, and then the final score below the eventual match winner in Richarlison.
To rub more salt into Maupay's wounds, Maddison had the support of some stars, with Judas Bellingham and feeling of darts Lucas Littler both commenting on the post.
Alongside a dart emoji on a dart board, Littler said: “Yes sir.”
Meanwhile, Bellingham simply commented on the grimacing emoji.
Not to miss the last word, Maupay couldn't help but post another photo of himself celebrating 20 minutes later, but with an additional criticism of Maddison.

“I was a little early with that one,” he wrote.
“Gutted, we couldn't get the win. More goals and fewer relegations in my career than James Maddison. We'll be back on Monday bees.”
He then commented on Maddison's post and wrote, “Ahaha, free rent.”
England international Maddison had previously explained his heated tangle with Maupay, telling TNT Sports: “I told him he hadn't scored enough goals to have his own celebration so he had to copy mine… long story short, it ended well for we.”
Judging by the consequences, it will not be a very short story, and given The story of Maupay.will probably reverberate the next time the two sides meet…
