Victor Boniface Shines in Leverkusen's Draw

Victor Boniface scored the opening goal for Bayer Leverkusen in their 2-2 draw against Holstein Kiel, marking his fourth goal of the Bundesliga season. The goal came just four minutes into the match, but Leverkusen later surrendered a 2-0 lead after Jonas Hofmann's follow-up goal. A potential second goal for Boniface was disallowed by VAR shortly after. Despite their strong start, Leverkusen allowed Holstein Kiel to equalize with goals from Max Geschwill and Fiete Arp, the latter converting a penalty. The result leaves Leverkusen in fifth place, just two points behind league leaders Bayern Munich. Boniface's performance has also earned him a spot in Nigeria's Super Eagles squad for upcoming AFCON qualifiers.
