Victor Boniface is full of excitement after netting in Bayer Leverkusen’s 3-1 victory over Hoffenheim on Sunday.
Boniface scored the opening goal for Bundesliga champions in the encounter.
It was the forward’s first outing for Die Werkself since sustaining an injury on international duty last November.
The 24-year-old was on target in 15th minute of the game with Hoffenheim.

The striker expressed his delight after stepping on the pitch again.
“I feel happy, I feel great. It has been a long time since I’ve been out, I think almost two months, so to be back and playing games is really good for me,” he told the club’s official website.
“It feels good to score, not just being a striker but in general as a team to score an early goal against a top team like this, it really helps build confidence and you can see that after the goal, the team gained more confidence to score more.”
He has scored seven goals in 11 league appearances for Xabi Alonso’s side this season.

Like James Brown, you feel good, pa ra ra ra ra ra ra.
That’s alright. We now need consistency from you.
Eric Chelle (Mali Pikin aka Omo Mali) will surely invite a serious, fit Boniface to camp.
A serious Boniface is needed in the SE, not the comedian wannabe, unfit, unserious Boniface that we’ve been seeing of recent. Let’s hope he has learnt his lesson.
Boniface has been useless for Nigeria whenever he is called to play. This guy has played so many games with nothing to show for his Country. Many serious Nigerians believes that Boniface is a ‘club player’ only. That is why his market value is so low that, only second-rate clubs via for him.
Wake-up boy, work hard for your Country, and you will ripe the wholesome benefits.
