'Tonight We Bury The Pogba-Kante Comparisons' - Nigerian Fans Rate Man Utd Star Ahead Of Chelsea Midfielder
Published: February 18, 2019
Manchester United are through to the quarterfinals of the Emirates FA Cup after beating Chelsea 2-0 in a fifth round tie at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, with French World Cup winner Paul Pogba getting on the scoresheet.
Most of the talk in the buildup to the match involved the midfield battle between Pogba and Chelsea star N'Golo Kante, and it was the United number six that came out on top.
Pogba won the ball in midfield from Kante in the build-up to United's second goal which he scored and provided the assist for Ander Herrera's strike on 31 minutes.
Manchester United's Nigerian fans believe the comparisons between Pogba and Kante are over after the United midfielder outshone his compatriot.
Here's what they have been saying on Twitter :
@olujays : ''Chelsea fans that actually compared kante to pogba need to go to a separate room and ask for forgiveness.''
