Super Eagles striker, Victor Boniface scores twice as Leverkusen record 7-0 win

Super Eagles stars, Victor Boniface and Nathan Tella were on the score sheet as Bayer Leverkusen started their pre-season for the 2026/27 campaign with an impressive 7-0 triumph over Sportfreunde Baumberg.

From the outset, Leverkusen dominated the friendly match, demonstrating their offensive prowess and the depth of their squad against the lower-league club.

The Bundesliga team delivered a remarkable performance, generating momentum as they approach the upcoming season.

Leverkusen’s new boy, Afonso Moreira had a stellar debut, netting two goals within the first 27 minutes to secure a brace.

Christian Kofane also scored in the first half, allowing Leverkusen to take a substantial lead into halftime.

Following the break, Victor Boniface maintained his strong pre-season form by scoring twice in a span of four minutes.

Robert Andrich contributed a sixth goal in the 56th minute, and Nathan Tella capped off the scoring with a goal in the 67th minute.

The return of Boniface and Tella to the scoresheet together will serve as a source of optimism for Leverkusen as they gear up for the new season.

Boniface spent the previous season on loan at Werder Bremen, but his time away from Leverkusen was marred by injury issues, which hindered his ability to achieve consistency.
