Darts sensation Luke Littler and his girlfriend Faith Millar took in Man United's thrilling 4-4 draw with Bournemouth alongside glum Man United chiefs on Monday night.

The 18-year-old world champion took time out from his exploits at Alexandra Palace to watch his beloved side.

The massive Man United fan, 18, was positioned alongside CEO Omar Berrada and Director of Football Jason Wilcox in the stands.

He was pictured grinning, while the two United head honchos cut far more serious figures.

Littler held hands with his other half, 19, and clearly enjoyed some down time before he's next in action at the World Darts Championship.

He plays David Davies next in Sunday's afternoon session in the second round of competition having breezed through his opener 3-0 against Darius Labanauskas.

It was a thrilling 4-4 draw but Littler and the rest of the fans saw familiar United frailties

The beautician was there to cheer him on and give him a good luck kiss and Littler is looking to pocket £1million by winning this year's competition.

Despite initially insisting they were merely friends, he went public with the relationship in July this year and was spotted kissing Millar during the World Matchplay event in Blackpool.

Littler, previously speaking on DartsStream Live, opened up about his relationship with Millar. He admitted that it had initially been 'tough' with people trolling their relationship online, but insisted those making comments were jealous.

'Yeah, it's been tough,' he said. 'Obviously, at the start of last year, I was always looking at the comments. And she's been having a look [at the] negativity.

'But I just said, "They're jealous. They wanna ruin us." But I just said, "Just don't look at it and just focus on what we've got"'.

She was by his side for what was one of the most entertaining games of the season, though perhaps not for Man United fans, who saw their team drop more points at home.

United fought back from 3-2 down in the second half to go ahead after a brilliant Bruno Fernandes free-kick and Matheus Cunha goal.

But Ruben Amorim's men were unable to see out the victory, conceding a late equaliser from Eli Junior Kroupi to share the spoils.

It could have been even worse when Senne Lammens was forced into a dramatic late stop from David Brooks to prevent United losing 5-4.

Amorim's side could do with some of Littler's steel under pressure.

The darts superstar has enjoyed an incredible 12 months, winning the World Matchplay, UK Open, World Grand Prix, Players Championship Finals and Grand Slam of Darts.

He's now the odds-on favourite to defend his title in the biggest tournament of the year over the next few weeks but perhaps should not be looking at Man United for inspiration on current form.
