<p>Al-Ittihad's mega Saudi Pro League clash with Al-Ahli had to be stopped for five minutes after home supporters threw flags onto the pitch. While the players took the opportunity to take a drinks break, Kante simply got to work by helping clear the flags from the pitch. It was a characteristically selfless act from the former Chelsea star and thrilled fans on social media, including broadcaster Ben Jacobs, who admitted it was "Typical N'Golo Kante."</p>
