Abubakar Bala says his Tornadoes will show quality in their next Optima Energy Gold Cup matches against fellow NPFL sides Sunshine Stars and Remo Stars.
He said after the win against Hammola FC of Osogbo: "I'm delighted that we have used the first two games in the Optima Energy Gold Cup to test the new players, and garnered six points.
" It has given us an avenue to access the team and the options we have. If you saw our play against Gateway FC and Hammola FC, the players that played for Tornadoes were the lads that are trying out with us.
"Sincere thanks to the two teams we have played so far, as they exposed a few blind spots to us and also gave a good account of themselves.
" Playing against the lower league teams is never easy, always tough and they are stubborn to beat, as they want to prove a point that they are good too by showing quality.
" Our striking options after two matches have not been fantastic but there is room for improvement."

Ahead of Ikon Allah's two tough matches against Sunshine Stars and defending champions Remo Stars, Bala hinted that his team will come good.
" Our Optima Energy Gold Cup campaign will begin with these two games. We have seen what the two teams are capable of, it was a tough game and they played good football.
" Expect a different NIger Tornadoes, as I'm going to start my best legs for the matches, as the fixture is like that of the Premier League. Men versus men and not against boys.
" The results from these two matches can change the shape of the Group A table but on our part, anything short of 4points is nothing."
