Former international, Greg Etafia has tipped Bayer Leverkusen striker, Victor Boniface to deliver the goods for the Super Eagles against Bafana Bafana of South Africa.

Boniface is expected to lead the line for the Super Eagles against Hugo Broos’ side in the absence of Napoli hitman, Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen will miss the game due to the injury he sustained while in action for his club.

Boniface enjoyed a successful campaign with Leverkusen where he won the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal.

Etafia, who has also backed the Super Eagles to beat their opponent, believed Boniface will make the difference for the West Africans.

“I really think Boniface will shine. After missing AFCON, he should be highly motivated to prove that he can help Nigeria, and this is a good chance for him to lead the attack as Osimhen is injured,” Etafia told Sowetan Live.

“I see Nigeria winning this game. It will be very close because Bafana are a tough team, but the coach (Finidi George) will go all out to win this game because many people doubt him, so he still wants to prove a point.”
