The attacker joined the Bundesliga side from Liverpool and went on to show his quality
Nigeria forward Taiwo Awoniyi was on target as his team Union Berlin claimed a point in their opening German Bundesliga game against Bayer Leverkusen.
After early exchanges at An der Alten Forsterei in Berlin, the hosts drew first blood after seven minutes. 33-year-old Max Kruse passed the ball to the Super Eagle who did not hesitate to find the back of the net.
However, the lead lasted for five minutes. Jeremie Frimpong provided the assist from which Frenchman Moussa Diaby scored.
