The Super Eagle scored after seven minutes which is the fastest goal so far in Bundesliga this season
Nigeria striker Taiwo Awoniyi has expressed his emotion after helping Union Berlin get a point in their first Bundesliga game of the season during the 1-1 draw against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday.
After failing to get a work permit at Liverpool, the 24-year-old opted for a permanent switch to the Bundesliga outfit where he played on loan the previous season, scoring five goals in 21 matches.
Against Leverkusen, at An der Alten Forsterei in Berlin, the West African drew first blood after seven minutes, when 33-year-old Max Kruse passed the ball to the Super Eagle who did not hesitate to find the back of the net.
