LUKE LITTLER tucked into an epic late breakfast before playing Football Manager on the biggest day of his life.
The 16-year-old narrowly missed out on becoming world champion of darts on his senior darts debut.

And he has now lifted the lid on his incredible routine ahead of last night’s final.
Littler suffered a heartbreaking 7-4 defeat to Luke Humphries at the World Darts Championship on Wednesday.
The teen was just one throw away from taking a 5-2 lead in the thriller.
But he had to settle for the runners-up prize of £200,000, having initially aimed to win just one match at the Ally Pally.
Littler knocked out plenty of big names along the way, including fan favourite Rob Cross and childhood Raymond van Barneveld – both former world champs.
And with his 17th birthday on the horizon, Littler has been tipped by new world No1 Humphries to “dominate darts” in the future.
Despite losing the final, he has already established himself as a national favourite.
It led to an appearance on ITV show Good Morning Britain today.
Littler said on GMB: “I had scrambled eggs and beans on toast – for dinner (lunch), I woke up at 12.
“Then we go to the venue, sign everyone in, get the wristbands on, have my margherita pizza.
“Then I throw for like half an hour, 45 minutes. Go and bull up, see who throws first.
“Play a bit of Football Manager then back on the board.
“I can’t wait to go back on my Xbox! (I didn’t bring it) because I didn’t expect to get to the final! 100 per cent (I’d have bought it).”
