Nathan Tella has continued to shine in the Bundesliga, as he has now bagged a first brace during a Bayer Leverkusen league game against Darmstadt in the German top-flight on Saturday.
The attacking midfielder keeps flying high after rescuing Bayer Leverkusen from the hands of Leipzig with a dramatic 3-2 comeback in a Bundesliga thriller.
He has found the back of the net yet again in the Bayer Leverkusen away victory.
The 24-year-old right winger scored in the first and second half of the game to hand Darmstadt a well-deserved 2-0 win at the Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor.
His first goal came in the 33rd minute after linking up beautifully with Alejandro Grimaldo to hand the visitors the lead.
The scoreline ended that way as they headed into the interval with a narrow lead.
Coming into the second half, the Xavier Alonso side resumed with so much power, confidence, and high spirit.
Barely seven minutes into the second period of the game, Florian Wirtz set up the Nigerian to double his tally, handing Bayer a 2-0 lead.
After featuring for 90 minutes in the game, Nathan managed to produce five shots, with two on target. It’s four goals in 11 matches for him so far.
Meanwhile, the victory and three points keep Nathan Tella and his teammates floating at the top of the table with 52 points from 20 league games.
The youngster is seriously making up for the absence of his fellow Nigerian, who has been sidelined due to injury.
They will be facing VfB Stuttgart up next in the DFB-Pokal quarterfinal clash at the BayArena on Tuesday.
