It was Arsenal that took the lead and after Saka’s shot deflected in off Cristian Romero, the winger celebrated by throwing an imaginary dart - something that Maddison also does after scoring goals.

Asked about the celebration after the match, Maddison admitted the pair share a bit of banter about it on England duty and took a cheeky dig at Saka.

“He must have still been doing it when I turned him for the first goal, so I’ll have a word with him,” he said, speaking to Talk Tottenham.
