Luke Littler suffered a shock defeat to Krzysztof Ratajski at the European Championship Darts, as he failed in his attempt to claim the one major title he's never won.

The world No 1 was beaten 10-6 in the quarter-finals on Sunday afternoon as his bid to sweep all of the PDC's major titles before his 20th birthday fell short.

Poland's Ratajski remarkably won seven legs in a row to take a 7-1 lead over the world champion before Littler rallied to pull the game back to 8-6.

But he missed bullseye to hold throw in the 15th leg and Ratajski pinned D16 to move 9-6 ahead.

Littler then failed to take out 121 in the next leg and Ratajski hit D10 to beat The Nuke for the first time in eight meetings.
