Apparently, N'Golo Kante is bit of a cheat when it comes to card games. He's since reacted to such claim in brilliant fashion.
The diminutive Frenchman is like a cheat code on the pitch because it's like having two players in the middle of the park with his tireless work rate.

Through his heroics, he's bagged back-to-back Premier League titles for Leicester City then Chelsea. Not to mention winning the World Cup in the summer.
And while representing France in Russia, Kante was accused of being a cheat at card games by his international colleagues.

He was quizzed by reporters following France's victory against the Netherlands on Sunday night.
"I'm not a cheat [at card games]. I'm a competitor and those who lose like to give others a bad rap," he said.
The 2018 World Cup winners played their first game at home since raising gold in Moscow. They beat the Netherlands 2-1 thanks to goals from Kylian Mbappe and a stunning strike courtesy of Olivier Giroud's boot.

Naturally, it was a party atmosphere in Paris which included Benjamin Mendy leading a Kante chant.
The French squad surrounded Kante and sang his song along with 80,000 fans in amazing scenes.

Well, these are the fantastic lyrics to it: "N'Golo Kanté, pala lalala, he's short, he's nice, he stopped Leo Messi, but we all know he's a cheater, N'Golo Kanté."
It must have been an incredible moment for the 27-year-old, especially for the thousands of fans in the stadium who were singing along.
