Tornadoes won the tension-soaked match via a lone strike from Lukman Mohammed at the Bako Kontagora Stadium in Minna.

“Its a relief, we cant hide it,” said Biffo after his men earned their first win of the season after the week one match against Ranchers Bees was moved.

For me its not about a relief of winning but for me its about the team and the fans who came to support their darling team.”

We have broken the ice and can continue the good work in our next match against FRSC in Abuja. I am happy we got three points and cant ask for more.”

Biffo, though, conceded it was not a consummate display but was pleased all the same.

In the first half, we passed the ball around and looked sharp. In the second stanza, we didnt play well but what matters most in winning.

The former Giwa boss added: We deserved the chance, we deserved the break. We have been playing very well in traing and I told the guys that they will break the ice and I am happy we started the season on a positive note.”

Tornadoes are third on the Group A2 table with 3 points from one game - 1 point behind leaders FRSC, who have played an extra match.
