Michael van Gerwen left red-faced after brutal Gary Anderson comment bites him back

 

Michael van Gerwen was left to rue his comments regarding Gary Anderson before taking on the Scot in the second round of the European Championship.

The pair clashed once again in Dortmund but only after Van Gerwen labelled his opponent a “part-timer” in the build-up to their highly anticipated match.

 

Those words clearly put the fire in Anderson, 53, who was in blistering form to dump the Dutchman out of the competition with a resounding 10-4 victory to reach the quarter-finals.
