sport news There's the Wallys! Darts fans brawl in the crowd - including one dressed as ... trends now

Darts fans wrestled in the stands and missed the moment Gerwyn Price hit the first nine-darter of the Premier League season - with one Where's Wally tribute fan living up to their name. 

Footage shows revellers getting rough with each other while beer sloshed and stewards tried to separate them. 

Staff managed to prise away a woman dressed in a 'Where's Wally?' costume while three men continued to struggle with each other. 

And Wally had seemingly got embroiled in the fisticuffs at the wrong time, for in the background, Price thudded through the climactic stages of his nine-darter in his semi-final assignment against Michael Smith in Manchester. 

The Welshman would go on to lose the final to Luke Littler, who won 6-3 to claim his second successive Darts Premier League night win.

Price threw two 180s and finished with a triple 19, a triple 20, and a double 12 to fly down from 141 and send the crowd wild. 

It was the seventh nine-darter of his career and his first since 2022. 

Smith was all smiles and high-fived Price as he played up to the crowd, who were jubilant after seeing his success. 

Price went on to beat Smith 6-3 to qualify for the final, where he lost to Littler.  

Littler, 17, is now top of the table after sealing his first win in Belfast last week before backing it up with another top performance at the AO Arena. 

He stands on 23 points, one ahead of world No 1 Luke Humphries, to whom he lost in the Darts World Championship final in January. 

Nathan Aspinall (18 points) and Michael van Gerwen (17 points) make up the two remaining play-off spots with six weeks of the regular season left to play. 

Price only sits seventh but will feel buoyed after his run to the final in Manchester. He is four points behind Van Gerwen. 

Littler might well be top of the table, but any elation from his win was soon tempered as he discovered how his beloved Manchester United had got on at Chelsea.
