PATRIOTIC Nathan Aspinall set up an England versus Germany clash with Ricardo Pietreczko on Monday. But his third-round clash with Andrew Gilding was briefly interrupted by a punter who downed a JUG of booze!. Two-time semi-finalist, 33, reached the Last 16 of the PDC World Darts Championship for the first time in five years with a 4-0 stuffing of Goldfinger that saw him nail 60 per cent of his doubles.

The Stockport thrower – who is taking his family on a trip to Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland on Sunday – said: “I’m in the Last 16 and it’s England v Germany. “It will be great. The German fans love the darts – it will be a nice little divide.

“There will be lots of football vibes. I love all that atmosphere and cannot wait. Hopefully we can put in a great show.”. Both players stopped throwing during the final leg because the whole crowd were cheering loudly as one bloke drank his alcoholic beverage in one swift go.

The Asp joked: “He was chugging a jug. Normally you chug a pint. But this guy had a four-pint jug. “I was just intrigued to see if he could finish it – he did and then he got kicked out. So fair play. “Unbelievable. And then I missed the board, going for the 18.”.
