Paul Pogba and Didier Drogba have both compared Antoine Griezmann to N'Golo Kante after France's 2-0 win over Morocco in the World Cup semi-final. The Atletico Madrid star has played an integral role in Didier Deschamps' side securing a place in the final having operated as both a forward and a midfielder.
Griezmann has started all but one of Les Bleu's fixtures in Qatar, directly contributing towards three goals. France's only defeat in the tournament has come when the 31-year-old was dropped to the bench in the final group stage clash when qualification to the knockout stages was all but confirmed.
While the Frenchman has posed a great threat to the opposition in the final third, he's provided as much quality in his nation's half. Griezmann is one of France's most prolific creators but he is also one of the side's best at recovering possession and, for that reason, Pogba likened his teammate to the all-action Chelsea star.
