Even though take that is toma or tómalo, I don't think anybody would say it in a real situation in Spanish.. It is only a literal translation. Things that could be said are: Yo te mato, Esta es para tí or Esta es para vos. The person could also insult the other por say dirty words

No. "¡tóma!", or "¡toma eso!" is "Take that!". "¡Tómalo!" is "Take it!". - Gekkosan May 31, 2010

Also offered in the thread:

¡Toma eso tú! (Take that you!)

Let me add a meme or two:

Actually go to the thread and read it, you will see it fits your context. :) - bosquederoble, Mar 10, 2017
Do keep in mind the accent on tóma is a mistake, it only carries an accent there when something is attached. :) - bosquederoble, Mar 11, 2017
