Victor Boniface’s impressive scoring streak continued as Bayer Leverkusen played out a 2-2 draw with newly-promoted Holstein Kiel in the Bundesliga on Saturday afternoon, BrainBurst.com reports.

Nigeria International Boniface got the ball rolling in the 4th minute, netting an exquisite goal assisted by Exequiel Palacios. This takes his league goal tally to four in six games, putting him on par with Florian Wirtz as Leverkusen’s top scorer in the Bundesliga this season. Both players have six goals in nine games across all competitions.

After Leverkusen doubled their lead through Jonas Hoffmann in the 8th minute, Boniface saw a potential second goal controversially ruled out by VAR in the 26th minute for offside.

This proved costly as Kiel pulled one back deep in added time through Max Geschwill, setting up a thrilling finish in which Jann-Fiete Arp equalized for Kiel from the penalty spot in the 69th minute.

The stalemate sees Leverkusen slip to fifth in the standings, two points adrift of record Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich, who welcome Eintracht Frankfurt to the Allianz Arena on Sunday.

What’s your take on Boniface’s impressive form? Should he be considered for Nigeria’s national team?
