The Nuke appeared to enjoy the 'banter' in 'rival' city Leeds
Leeds supporters took time off from celebrating a return to a different type of Premier League to give the Nuke some abuse.
But on his way to a 6-4 comeback win over Nathan Aspinall in his opener, the 18-year-old took a brutal opportunity to get his own back.
The Warrington whizkid sunk Double 10 to level at four legs apiece - then turned to baying fans at The First Direct Arena in Leeds.
Littler wore a cold look with the hint of a smirk.
He then curled up his lips as if crying - and then pretended to rub tears from his eyes.
After turning back, Littler produced a half-smile - suggesting he is happy to give and take banter.
Not surprisingly - given he was in the town of one of United's old rivals - his antics divided the option of fans.
"That's poor form," posted one viewer.

"Nice one," responded another.

Arsenal chief's reputation on line with Gyokeres vs Sesko transfer decision
Arsenal are closing in on a deal for Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres with the Gunners having also been interested in Benjamin Sesko during the summer transfer window Arsenal are closing in on a sensational swoop for Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres. The Gunners have an agreement in place on a five year contract in excess of £200,000-a-week for the Sweden international who hit a staggering 54 goals last season. But Sporting Lisbon are still determined to play hardball on the fee and want around £70m - with at least £60m up-front and more in add-ons - and Arsenal are pushing hard to get an agreement on the fee. Sweden International Gyokeres, 27, was adamant he believed there was a 'gentleman's agreement' in place for him to leave for £60m this summer. He is desperate to join Arsenal. But Sporting president Frederico Varandas insisted there was no buy-out clause and is still holding firm, although talks between the clubs are now progressing and it looks increasingly likely that Gyokeres will be Arsenal's new No9. It will be a big coup for Arsenal's new sporting director Andrea Berta who is effectively staking his reputation on ex-Coventry and Brighton striker Gyokeres who left English football to become a huge hit in Portugal where he scored 97 goals in 102 appearances. But there are still question marks over whether that will translate into the Premier League and Arsenal's No1 target last year was RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko who was courted this summer but no agreement has ever been reached. It is clear that Berta has championed Gyokeres over Sesko and that is an interesting development even though Mikel Arteta is also on board with the decision. Arteta wants his new signings on board for pre-season. Arsenal have been desperate to land a new No9 and they are spending big with the announcement of new £51m midfielder Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad. They have also announced keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, they want a new defender - Valencia's Cristhian Mosquera has been heavily linked - and have a £15m deal lined up for Brentford's Christian Norgaard. The Gunners are also determined to sign a new winger with Real Madrid star Rodrygo their dream target but they will not be able to afford him and all their other deals without making a significant sale. There has been Saudi Pro League interest in Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard while Arsenal have been tracking Chelsea 's Noni Madueke who is surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge Arsenal also need to tie down Ethan Nwaneri, 18, who is entering the final year of his contract but wants playing time and the uncertainty around his future - with him fitting perfectly into Chelsea's model - is a huge concern.

I was hiding behind mega eyelashes & hair extensions but then ditched it – people say my glow-down is ‘breathtaking'
Plus, four easy ways to give yourself a glow-down this summer YOU GLOW GIRL I was hiding behind mega eyelashes & hair extensions but then ditched it – people say my glow-down is 'breathtaking' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A YOUNG woman has left people with their jaws on the floor after sharing her epic glow-down. At some point in our life, most of us will change our style - whether it's wearing less make-up, giving up fake tan for good, or doing the very opposite. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 One beauty left people stunned with her epic glow-down Credit: tiktok/@georgiemckenzie 2 Now, the young woman, who regularly shares lifestyle content on her page, looks absolutely phenomenal, rocking her real brunette hair Credit: tiktok/@georgiemckenzie But while there are plenty of glow-ups and downs shared on TikTok, it will be pretty challenging to find one more epic than Georgie McKenzie's incredible transformation. A glow-down, similar to the ''clean girl aesthetic'' trend, is rooted in the idea of ''less is more''. It promotes enhancing natural beauty - rather than covering it up. With a glow-down, out are the hair extensions, fake nails and mega lashes - and in is learning how to take care of your skin to make it radiant. Before embarking on her transformation journey, the young woman was sporting mega eyelashes and bleach blonde hair extensions. Georgie, who works as a flight attendant, has also been getting Botox - however, she told her followers that it's ''staying'', despite now sporting a more natural look. Sharing the jaw-dropping makeover online, Georgia said: ''I spent so long covering myself up with blonde hair extensions, massive eyelashes. ''I almost forgot the real me.'' The clip, which has since racked up close to 17k views, also saw Georgie show fellow TikTokers what she had been hiding all these years - and the glow underneath has left people gobsmacked. Now, the young woman, who regularly shares lifestyle content on her page, looks absolutely phenomenal, rocking her real brunette hair. I was on Just Tattoo Of Us in 2019 & got the worst leg tattoos for having streaky fake tan , all I can do now is laugh In a bid to look more natural, the stunner now also doesn't hide behind faux lash extensions, which suits her ''much better'', fans said. Amazed by the makeover, over 30 social media users raced to comments where they all agreed on one thing - she had made the right choice by embracing her natural beauty. One viewer said: ''You're so pretty and every other girl on this platform, your beauty is natural and pretty everyone is different in their on way and that makes you the way you are.'' Four ways to give yourself a glowdown Thick fluffly lashes are out, so is the fake tan and long how to have the ultimate glow-down in four steps... The term "glow-down" refers to a woman removing what once was the most popular beauty choices, for a more natural look. Eyelash extensions - Thick, bold "Russian lashes" used to be all the rage, but nowadays, girls are opt for subtle, individual eyelash extensions to lengthen what they already have. Nails - Gone are the long, plastic talons, more women are favouring BIAB or gel manis. Hair colour - Remember when everyone wanted icy white hair? Not anymore! Millions of women are trying to go back to their roots (literally), and have soft blondes, and warm gold tones added to their hair, in a bid to achieve the "old money blonde" look. Makeup - Sculpting your face shape through the art of contouring is no more. Ladies are adding freckles and sweeping blush across cheekbones instead. Another chimed in: ''I love walking out of the house in no make up nowadays. ''Entered my natural "if you don't like it don't look" era a while back and I've never been happier (and I get a lie in).'' Someone else commented: ''Loved the after much better.'' ''BREATHTAKING,'' a TikToker was lost for words, as another dubbed the makeover ''a slay''. Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.

Max Verstappen SPINS OUT and loses nine places in bizarre safety car incident as Oscar Piastri is given penalty
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THERE was a bonkers restart after a safety car at Silverstone as Max Verstappen dramatically SPUN OFF track. The Dutchman, who was in second place, had momentarily pulled in front of Oscar Piastri who slowed right down as the safety car was ending. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Max Verstappen dramatically spun off the track Amid all the confusion Verstappen spun wildly before recovering and dropping all the way back into 11th. The Dutchman was left fuming, and said on his team radio: "Whoa, Mate! Jesus, just suddenly again slows down!" The stewards were then forced to investigate Piastri for a Safety Car infringement and he was later slapped with a whopping ten-second time penalty. Lando Norris just needed to stay within touching distance from his teammate and the Silverstone crown would be his. The safety car had been called into action as Isack Hadjar slammed into the wall and was luckily left unhurt. The Racing Bulls youngster had crashed into the back of Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli. McLaren chief executive Zak Brown on Sky Sports F1: "We're debating that here on the pit wall. That was a bit of a late Safety Car call in. "The leader controls the race. I think it looked a little bit more dramatic on tv than we saw on telemetry." CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS He also admitted McLaren are considering appealing, saying: "Yeah. That's exactly the conversation that we're having. "I think you also had Max accelerating because he thought Oscar was about ready to go. A combination of both."
