A selection of Chelsea fans on Twitter heaped praise on midfielder N’Golo Kante following his man of the match display against Real Madrid in the Champions League last night.

The Blues booked their spot in the final of the elite competition after a 3-1 aggregate triumph over the reigning Spanish champions.

They had the away-goal advantage after the 1-1 draw in Madrid. They secured a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge last night after goals from Timo Werner and Mason Mount.

Blues goalkeeper Edouard Mendy impressed in the opening half with two crucial saves to deny Karim Benzema, and the club controlled the proceedings after the break.

They should have won by four or five goals with the chances created, but they ultimately got the job done with comfort against Zinedine Zidane’s side.

Kante produced another dominating midfield display with one tackle, one clearance and five interceptions, and he was also impressive going forward.

The Frenchman created three key chances, including one in the lead-up to the second goal scored by Mount, five minutes before stoppage time.

Some of the Blues’ faithful were delighted with his showing, and here are a few reactions.

N'golo Kante appreciation post. That was up there with one of his best performances in a Chelsea shirt. He was everywhere tonight, defence and attack. Huge part in both our goals and bossed the midfield against Kroos and Modric. All whilst fasting during Ramadan. Incredible
