The recent focus on Maupay's actions began when he mimicked James Maddison's famous darts celebration when he scored the opening goal of Brentford's 3-2 defeat to Ange Postecoglou's side. Maddison ended up confronting the Frenchman on the pitch, and later criticised the move and his goal scoring exploits, which Maupay to responded to on social media by pointing out Maddison's relegation record. Maupay also riled James Maddison by copying his darts celebration after scoring at Tottenham The pair were then involved in an odd exchange after Maddison took exception to the move The two footballers later clashed on social media, with Maddison sharing a picture of the forward celebrating on social media, furious that he had mimicked his trademark celebration Later in the match, Spurs goal scorers Brennan Johnson and Richarlison performed the celebration, seemingly in jest at Maupay.
