Boniface’s goals against Hoffenheim
The Super Eagles forward, who netted the first of his two goals in the 30th minute, received a superb defence-splitting pass from Granit Xhaka.
Boniface skillfully dribbled past defender, Alexander Prass, before finishing stylishly past the onrushing goalkeeper, Oliver Baumann.
The former Union St.-Gilloise star struck again for his second goal, this time after another precise pass from Jeremie Frimpong. Boniface deftly manoeuvred around Czech Republic defender, Pavel Kadeřábek, before slotting the ball into the bottom corner, beneath goalkeeper, Baumann.
His brace secured a 4-1 victory for Leverkusen on the night. According to data from FotMob, Alonso’s side had previously endured their first Bundesliga defeat in over a season during their last league match against RB Leipzig.
Leverkusen will now look to build on their impressive performance as they prepare for their UEFA Champions League fixture away at Feyenoord.
