JAKARTA - An inspiring story comes from Chelsea player, NGolo Kante who continues to strive to carry out worship in the midst of his tough task in the team. Kante deserves to be an idol because his responsibility to the team and also his belief is always balanced.
Quoted from ESPN, Kante is known to continue fasting during the month of Ramadan. Even though it has to appear in the midst of thirst and hunger, it does not reduce resilience in the field.
In Chelsea's performance against Liverpool, some time ago, Kante was known to continue fasting Ramadan. In addition to that match, Kante has a list of other matches that are played when he has to perform the same worship.
Despite fasting, Kante is still able to show the quality of his game. It was proven when he continued to guard Chelsea's midfield in the 2020/2021 Champions League semifinals against Real Madrid.
At that time Kante continued to carry out his duties as a responsible midfielder. He eagerly continued to explore all corners of the field until he became a man of the match in the last two legs of the last four against Los Blancos.
Kante's journey felt lighter when appearing in the Premier League, where the competition invited Muslim players to break their fast in the middle of the match. While in the Champions League the situation is inversely proportional, UEFA has not implemented the same policy.
That means for the full 90 minutes Kante is still fasting but he can still perform optimally.
Kante's move to become a devout Muslim never goes smoothly and easily. Because when he appeared for Chelsea under Thomas Tuchel, the coach had warned Kante that fasting would make him tired easily.
However, Kante proved this through his excellent appearance and dismissed that fasting would interfere with performance in the field.
