Kante Breaks Xavi's Euro Record

Frenchman N'Golo Kante, the star of the Saudi Al-Ittihad team, succeeded in achieving a historic achievement at the European Nations Cup level, after his country's national team defeated its Belgian counterpart, with a clean goal, in the round of 16 of the Euro 2024 Championship. The "Opta" network said that Kante became the player who participated in the most European Nations Cup matches, with 12 matches, without being defeated, breaking the record of former Spain star Xavi Hernandez with 11 matches. The network stated that N'Golo Kante tops the list of players with the longest series of matches without defeats for any European player in the history of major tournaments, the World Cup and the European Nations Cup, as France did not lose any of the 19 matches in which Kante played, as the Roosters won 13 and drew 6 matches. The French national team will face its Portuguese counterpart in the quarter-finals, scheduled for next Friday evening.
