[VIDEO]: Leverkusen warm up for Qarabag with Boniface banger goal

Bayer Leverkusen fans are buzzing with excitement as they reminisce about Victor Boniface's heroics ahead of their crucial UEFA Europa League second-leg encounter against Qarabag. 

The Nigerian sensation left a lasting impression the last time Qarabag visited the BayArena, and Leverkusen faithful are hoping for a repeat performance.

In a tweet that stirred up nostalgia, Bayer 04 Leverkusen's official account shared the iconic moment, declaring, "HE SCORES GOALS!  Last time Qarabag visited the #BayArena! #B04QAR | #Bayer04 #UEL #aCROSSeurope @boniface_jrn." 

Fans were quick to relive the magic, eagerly anticipating another standout performance as Qarabad returns to the same Arena.

Qarabag's previous visit to the BayArena ended in disappointment as they conceded five goals, with Boniface delivering a sensational strike from outside the box that echoed across the stadium. 

Now, as Leverkusen prepare for the decisive clash, memories of that emphatic victory fuel their confidence.

With the tie finely poised, Leverkusen have looked to their past successes against Qarabag for inspiration as they aim to secure a spot in the next round of the Europa League.

Despite the nostalgia, Leverkusen and their supporters know they will have to take on Qarabag without theri Nigerian superstar, Boniface, who is on the road to recovery after a long term knee problem. 

But with history on their side, the stage is set for another unforgettable European night as Leverkusen and Qarabag lock horns in a battle for progression.
