Bundesliga outfit Bayer Leverkusen sailed into the Europa League last four thanks to an inspired performance from Moussa Diaby against Union SG.
Bayer Leverkusen are through to the semifinal of the UEFA Europa League, UEL, following a dominant performance against Union Saint-Gilloise on Thursday.
Leverkusen put on a show with Moussa Diaby in an inspirational form following a 4-1 win over Union SG in the quarterfinal second leg.
Diaby was the star of the night after he scored a goal in either half to lead Xabi Alonso's side to a comfortable evening away from home.
Bayer Leverkusen have booked their place in the semifinal with a 5-2 aggregate victory over Union Saint-Gilloise.
Boniface caged
It was a rather quiet outing for Nigeria's Boniface, who is the Europa League joint-top scorer heading into the decisive encounter.
Leverkusen came out with serious intent as early as possible with their defence caging the 22-year-old forward for the duration of his time on the pitch.

Having seen first-hand what Boniface was capable of following his exploits in the first leg, Xabi Alonso and his boys came prepared in the second leg.
For the 81 minutes he spent on the pitch before he was subbed off for Gustaf Nilsson, Nigeria's Boniface was easily neutralised by the Germans.
