New kid on the bloc, Nigerian forward, Victor Boniface has taken the Bundesliga by storm after netting consecutive braces for German side, Bayer 04 Leversekusen.
Boniface has scored 4 goals in just 3 appearances in his debut season in the bundesliga.
Boniface has matched a record as only the third Bundesliga player to make a six-goal contribution in his first three Bundesliga games after netting a brace in Bayer 04 Leverkusen’s 5-1 win over Darmstadt on matchday 3.
He made an assist in his club’s first league game of the new season against RB Leipzig before he opened his Bundesliga account with 2 goals against Borussia Monchengladbach in their second game.
On Saturday, Boniface continued his impressive start to life with Die Welkserf by netting his second brace in just three games.
The first goal was a beautiful chip after maneuvering his way past two Darmstadt defenders following a lightning Leverkusen’s counterattack.
His second would come just after the hour mark after being played through on goal by Florian Wirtz and the rampant forward made no mistake again to net his fourth goal in two matches.
Boniface still had time to assist German International Jonas Hofman’s first goal for the club to set Leverkusen to a comfortable victory over the newcomers at the Bay Arena.
Boniface was joint-top scorer in the UEFA Europa League last season.
Congratulations, Vic! reads a tweet on the club’s Twitter handle.
