Super Eagles Duo Frank Onyeka, Victor Boniface Named In Bundesliga Team Of The Week

Super Eagles of Nigeria footballers, Frank Onyeka and Victor Boniface have both been recognized for their outstanding performances and included in the Bundesliga Team of the Week.

Recall that Victor Boniface scored twice and provided an assist as his club, Bayer Leverkusen beat TSG Hoffenheim 4-1 away from home.

On the other hand, Boniface’s countryman, Frank Onyeka made his debut for Augsburg in their 3-1 German Bundesliga victory over St. Pauli on Sunday.

Though the 26-year-old midfielder didn’t score in the game, he was outstanding throughout his time on the pitch as he grabbed an assist in his club’s 3-1 win over FC St. Pauli.

Aside from being named in German Bundesliga team of the week, Onyeka who is at Augsburg on a season-long loan from Brentford, got praises from his new manager, Jess Thorup.

Thorup emphasized Onyeka’s exceptional performance, noting that while the only thing missing was a goal, his assist and overall play were truly outstanding for a first game even though he trained twice with his new team before the game.

“He (Onyeka) only trained twice and was involved in the international matches,” the coach said on Sunday, September 15.

“From the start, he showed us what a good player he is. He is ready to help the team, and that’s what he did today.

“Maybe the only thing missing was the goal at the end, although he had an assist and played very well. For a first game, it was really an outstanding game.”
