Chelsea drew 1-1 against Leicester City on Sunday afternoon in the Premier League, with the Blues looking rather fatigued.
The Londoners put on a fairly lacklustre showing, counting themselves lucky to get a point in the end.
Starting off the game very well, Frank Lampard’s men looked very dangerous in the first 15 minutes, and could have scored 2 or 3.
But the players looked tired in the second half and almost lost the game.
Some of the players looked to be suffering from fatigue after playing 120 minutes against Liverpool in mid-week. But there was two players who were still full of running for Chelsea.
N’Golo Kante covered the most amount of distance for Chelsea, running 11.15km, whilst goal-scorer Mason Mount was only marginally behind at 11.15km, this according to journalist Nizaar Kinsella.
N'Golo Kante covered the most distance for a Chelsea player yesterday at 11.15km. Man could do with no mid-week game after 120 mins in the Super Cup too. All after coming back from several months out injured. #CFC #CHELEI

You might not be surprised to hear Mason Mount was just behind and covered 11.12km.

Kante’s name will not surprise people at all, the man does not seem to stop running and he is absolutely everywhere in the pitch.
Mount has shown great energy as well, and his intense pressing was what got him his goal on Sunday.
