A stunning compilation of N’Golo Kante’s performance in the Champions League final proves he’s an all-time great.
Kante was relentless at breaking up Man City’s attack, stopping their threat from midfield – producing a vital tackle on Kevin De Bruyne in the second-half.
The diminutive Frenchman also showed off his offensive side, setting up his team’s attacks and being a menace on the break.
He delivered yet another ‘Man of the Match’ display in the Champions League as he enhanced his legacy.

The 30-year-old, who has won pretty much everything in football, will go down in history as one of greatest midfielders to have ever played the beautiful game.

N’golo Kante is a good shout for the Ballon D’or, easily been the best player in the Champions League

One wrote: “One of the best ever. Tonight surpassed even Chelsea’s greats (Mikel, Essien, Makelele) if he hadn’t already.”
A second tweeted: “World’s? Probably in the history. He’s redefining the role. I can easily see him breaking up Xavi and Iniesta’s play. Or absolutely kicking Pirlo or Zidane. His that good.”
A third added: “This Dude deserves the Ballon d’Or. He’s absolute world class.”
A fourth commented: “He should be considered for the Ballon d’Or this season if France win the Euros. What a player. He is like playing with an extra midfielder.”
Kante for the Ballon d’Or? Let us know what you think.
