Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante was brilliant both on and off the ball as Chelsea defeated Leicester City 2-1 at the King Power stadium.

Kante, who was instrumental in Leicester’s title triumph in 2015/16, scored the match winner after a shot from outside the box.

Kante’s power, energy and intelligence was too much for Leicester City’s midfield to cope with and his partnership with Tiemoue Bakayoko is even going to get better.

Below are Kante’s game by numbers vs. Leicester according to Squawka Football:

100% tackles won

63 passes

3 clearances

3 interceptions

3 chances created

1 goal

Kante was just brilliant against Leicester City.
