5 subplots to the Chelsea vs Barcelona round of 16 tie

#2 Sergio Busquets vs N'Golo Kante, who will come out on top?

It's Kante vs Busquets

It's a shame that these two midfielders are not counted in the same breath as some of their more illustrious teammates like Lionel Messi and Eden Hazard. These two go about their job silently, week in and week out. They are incredibly effective just because they do it so efficiently and effortlessly.

This particular tie will particularly hinge on the fact on who wins the midfield battle between arguably the best central midfielders in the world- Sergio Busquets and N'Golo Kante? Both of them are incredibly intelligent readers of the game. They are adept at breaking the opposition attacks and starting a new one for their team. As their teammates bomb forward they also act as the defensive shield in case of any counter-attack.

This duel between these two midfielders will certainly be very exciting to watch.
