This Wednesday, Internacional intensified preparations to face Grêmio in the 24th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The match will take place this Sunday at 5:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre.

How was the training session?

Before heading to the field, the players performed strength exercises at the gym in CT Parque Gigante. Then, they did running drills with changes of direction before the technical and tactical training session led by Roger Machado.

The team will train again on Thursday morning to continue fine-tuning the details for the weekend’s clash.

Important return

For the match, left-back Bernabei strengthens Colorado’s defensive system after serving a suspension in the last round due to an accumulation of yellow cards in the national competition.

Season situation

Internacional’s season has not been good. Eliminated in the round of 16 of both the Copa do Brasil and the Libertadores, the club is now only competing in the Brasileirão. In the national competition, they are coming off a heavy 4-1 defeat to Palmeiras and currently sit in 12th place on the table, with 27 points earned.
