In the 5th round of Group D in the UEFA World Cup Qualifiers, France won 4-0 against Ukraine, securing a World Cup spot in advance. The 34-year-old N'Golo Kante started as a midfielder and delivered another flawless performance, being everywhere on the pitch.
Kante provided 1 assist and completed 1 successful dribble in this match, with 104 touches and only 7 dispossessions. His pass accuracy was nearly 95%. Defensively, he also achieved 6 successful duels, 1 successful aerial duel, 1 interception and 4 tackles.
Kante joined Al-Ittihad Jeddah in Saudi Arabia two years ago, and fans originally thought he would fade out of the mainstream. However, although his value has dropped to €5 million due to his age, he still secures a regular spot in the French national team and maintains consistent performances.
