However, Kante struggled in the game and at one moment, he was embarrassed by former Red Devils defender Alex Telles.
While duelling on the edge of the pitch, the defender used a unique bit of skill to get by the midfielder.
Kante’s response was to foul the Portuguese ace and stop the attack in its tracks.
Manchester United fans were stunned on social media but Telles’ skill.
One commented: “Telles absolutely cooked Kante there.”
Another wrote: “Alex Telles just sent Kante back to Stamford Bridge with a gorgeous move.”
Another consequence of the match was that Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema reunited.
The pair were filmed in the tunnel before the match, sharing an embrace and having a conversation.
