São Paulo return to training, Toloi faces Cotia youngsters | OneFootball

São Paulo reconvened on Sunday morning after their 2-0 victory over Bahia at Morumbis, for the Brazilian Championship. The workday was marked by a scrimmage between the professionals and the young players from Cotia.

The athletes who played most of the match against Bahia performed recovery exercises inside the facilities of the Barra Funda training center.

Meanwhile, those who came on during Saturday’s match and those who were not used faced 15 players from São Paulo’s youth academy in an 11-a-side scrimmage that used the full length of the pitch.

Rafael Toloi was the big news of the session. The defender, who is recovering from an injury to the back of his left thigh, participated in the scrimmage without restrictions, taking another step in his recovery process.

Toloi had already been cleared by the Medical Department and had been working in recent days under the supervision of the fitness coaches as part of his transition process back to the pitch.

Ferraresi, who missed the match against Bahia due to an accumulation of yellow cards, also took part in the scrimmage against the young players from Cotia and may return to the team in the next round, against Vasco, in Rio de Janeiro.

The São Paulo squad was given two days off and will reconvene on Wednesday, starting preparations for the next fixture of the season, which will be a direct clash for a spot in the Libertadores.
