Brentford striker Maupay mocks Maddison relegation record after celebration stoush

Brentford striker Neal Maupay took fresh aim at James Maddison after defeat at Tottenham last night.

The centre forward, who is having a mixed season, became involved in a mini altercation with Maddison on the night.

Maupay had opened the scoring for his team in an eventual 3-2 loss, which saw him copy Maddison's dart throw celebration.

The two eventually had to hug it out, albeit awkwardly, as Spurs took the ball to the centre spot.

Maddison used the 'short story' line on Instagram to post a photo of Maupay.

He then posted another photo of himself celebrating the win. However, Maupay replied: “Went a bit early with that one [cover eyes emoji].

"Gutted we couldn't get the win. More goals and less relegations in my career than James Maddison. We go again Monday, Bees."
