Victor Boniface found himself in a tense moment with teammate Emiliano Buendía during Bayer Leverkusen’s dominant 4-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt. The brief altercation, which occurred in stoppage time, saw Boniface visibly frustrated after a misunderstanding with Buendía on the pitch.
During stoppage time, Boniface and Buendía got in each other’s way, leading to frustration from the Nigerian striker, who had to be calmed by teammates. The duo, both introduced as substitutes, were involved in a brief exchange that caught attention.
Alonso, however, downplayed the incident in his post-match press conference. “I spoke with Boni. I don’t have all the details, but he wanted to shoot. These things happen. It’s nothing big,” the Leverkusen boss assured. “We’re staying calm. On Monday, we’ll move on.”
Boniface has been a key player for Leverkusen this season, netting 10 goals across all competitions. With the club pushing for silverware, Alonso will be keen to keep the squad united as they continue their impressive campaign.
