Bayer Leverkusen is currently playing against Werder Bremen. As of now, Leverkusen leads the match 1-0, with Victor Boniface scoring the only goal in the 30th minute

The Nigerian striker recently garnered attention not only for his on-field performance but also for his involvement in a car accident. The incident occurred on October 20, 2024, shortly after Boniface played a pivotal role in his team's 2-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt, where he scored the decisive goal.

Following the match, Boniface was involved in a serious car crash on the autobahn when his vehicle collided with a truck.

Fortunately, he emerged from the incident with only minor injuries, primarily bruises. He was treated at a local hospital and later shared a message of gratitude on social media, thanking God for his safety. Along with his message, he posted a video showing the extent of damage to his car, which underscored the severity of the accident.

This season, he has been a standout player for Bayer Leverkusen, tallying seven goals in ten matches across all competitions. His impressive form and determination to overcome the challenges he faced have solidified his status as a key player for the club, making his recent goal even more remarkable given the circumstances surrounding his return to the pitch.
