The diminutive Frenchman, who was fasting, delivered one of his best performances in a Chelsea shirt, absolutely dominating the engine room of the pitch.
He controlled the midfield, negating the threat of Luka Modric and Toni Kroos - breaking up play and setting up attacks in a heroic performance.

Kante played a big role in his side's first goal as Timo Werner headed home from close range to open the scoring at Stamford Bridge.
He continued to orchestrate proceedings in the middle of the park and showed off his blistering pace late on, catching up with Werner in a sublime counter-attack.
His outing is even more impressive when you consider that he's observing Ramadan. What a player.
And let's not forget that Ngolo Kanté is fasting for Ramadan. And still puts another incredible performance tonight! What a player. "The gift", like Thomas Tuchel calls him. pic.twitter.com/ujIUbb4NEl

A magnificent talent who was mobbed by Chelsea fans following the game on Wednesday.
He left the ground in his Mini Cooper with fans showing him love in brilliant scenes.
