N’Golo Kante surprised everyone against Southampton, not because of his defensive contribution to the victory but his attacking quality.The Chelsea midfielder went past three to four Southampton players to square a beautiful ball across goal that only needed a simple touch to send it home.
Michy Batshuayi who didn’t take part in the game couldn’t help but be amazed at Kante’s mazy run and called the 25-year-old “N’Golo Messi”.
“Ngolo Messi tonight almost got assist of the year 😭 great game from the lads, and 3 important points 🙏 have a good night yall,” he posted on twitter.
