A DARTS star with ambitions of being bigger than Cristiano Ronaldo left viewers stunned after an outrageous double bullseye checkout.
The 50-year-old veteran Jose de Sousa was up against Luke Humphries in the Player Championship 28 on Wednesday.
De Sousa secured a shock 6-5 win against the world champion to send him home in the second round, with his incredible opening leg checkout proving a sign of things to come.
The Portuguese player, known for his maverick style, required 115 as he approached the oche.
De Sousa opted to go for the bold route of bullseye, 15 and another bullseye.
And he pulled it off in stunning fashion – even getting acknowledgement from Humphries as the pair fist bumped.
Fans were also left shocked, with one saying: “They don’t make them like Jose anymore.”
Another added: “Well, that is one way to take it out.”
De Sousa went on to make the quarter-final before losing to eventual winner Wesley Plaisier.
The Dutchman won the title despite him not having a PDC Tour card.
