Super Eagles stars Nathan Tella and Victor Boniface will play in the UEFA Europa League finals after Bayer Leverkusen recorded another draw against Roma in the BayArena on Thursday, May 9.

The German champions came from a two goal deficit to draw the game and maintain their 100 percent record this season.

Coach Xabi Alonso dropped Boniface to the bench despite an impressive performance last time out Eintracht Frankfurt, when he scored.

Tella, who started the last game was also benched for the entire game.

While fans of the club are still ecstatic about the performance of the team and a possible treble in sight, Boniface in usual fashion took to social media to react to his sides victory.

In a post on Instagram, he simply wrote: "Dey play" with a photo of the popular Chinese movie Shaolin soccer attached.

The post has since generated several reactions on social media.

Boniface will face Ademola Lookman's in the finals in Dublin later this month.

Lookman scored the first goal as Atalanta defeated Olympic Marseille 3-0 to seal their passage with a 4-1 aggregate win over the French club.
