    Boniface on target in Leverkusen's unbeaten title win

    Nigerian striker Victor Boniface scored his 14th league goal of the season as German champions, Bayer Leverkusen wrapped up their historic unbeaten run with a 2-1 win over Augsburg and became the first Bundesliga team to finish a league season unbeaten on Saturday. Boniface opened scoring in the 12th minute to get Leverkusen's coronation party started while Robert Andrich doubled the advantage 15 minutes later before the visitors pulled one back in the second half. The 23-year-old who was named the Bundesliga Rookie of The Season finished his first topflight campaign in Germany as the eighth-highest goal scorer, despite missing about four months of action due to injury. Leverkusen's season-long unbeaten run is now at 51 games in all competitions – already breaking a 59-year-old UEFA record – and two more wins will secure a remarkable treble.
