The Norwegian model and influencer has been with the Nigerian striker for over five years and is a huge supporter of his. Pulse Sports Kenya noted that Jensen was in attendance as Bayer Leverkusen wrapped up the Bundesliga title, sharing photos of Boniface in action.

She was once again behind the soccer star this past week as his Leverkusen side competed in the Europe League semi-final.

The German side took on the Serie A outfit in the second leg of their semi-final, leading 2-0 from the first leg.

The Bundesliga champions were 2-0 down but rallied to draw the game 2-0 and continue their unbeaten streak.

As noted by GOAL, they have now beaten Benfica’s record for the longest unbeaten run in European football.

Though Boniface was an unused substitute during the game, Jensen was still 100% behind the team as they progressed to the final.

As noted by Soccernet.ng, the model took to social media to share photos of her and friends at the Bay Arena, as they celebrated the result.

She captioned the post: “From losing the quarter-final to Rome in 2022 to winning and going to the Europa League final😍😍😭we are happy and proud girls!!!”
