The victory saw Leverkusen extend their unbeaten run across all competitions to 50 matches as they continue their quest for an unprecedented treble.

In a video shared on social media, Boniface was spotted holding a '50' balloon as he celebrated the moment by breaking out a popular Nigerian dance.

Leverkusen have been in rampant form this season, clinching the Bundesliga title to end Bayern Munich's run of dominance and are also still in contention for both the German Cup and the UEFA Europa League.

Meanwhile, in a one-sided game at Bochum, the hosts were reduced to 10 men after ten minutes when right-back, Felix Passlack, was sent off just 15 minutes in.

Patrik Schick opened the scoring for the new German champions before Boniface doubled their advantage from the spot on the stroke of half-time.

After the break, Amine Adli extended the lead with 14 minutes remaining before late strikes from Josip Stanisic and Alex Grimaldo sealed an emphatic win for Leverkusen, as reported by The Guardian.

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Boniface reacted hilariously to Leverkusen's comeback draw against AS Roma in the Europa League semi-final.

The new German champions scored two late goals to advance to the final of the European second-tier competition, extending their unbeaten run.

Leverkusen were staring at a rare defeat during the Europa League game before a strike from Stanisic salvaged a draw for the hosts at the BayArena.

Sports Brief also reported that Boniface outclassed Frankfurt forward, Nacho Ferri, with a cheeky nutmeg during their teams' Bundesliga encounter.

The Super Eagles forward was on target in the win as the newly crowned Bundesliga champions extended their unbeaten run to 48 games.

Boniface, who has been pivotal for Leverkusen, has been one of the best players in the league this season and also made the Team of the Year.
