On the morning of this Monday (20), at SuperCT, the squad held its final training session before facing Juventude this Tuesday (21), at 7:15 p.m., at MorumBIS, in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.
With their debut in the national competition ahead, São Paulo began the final day of preparation with a video shown by the coaching staff to the players. After that, the fitness staff led the warm-up work on the pitch.
Then, head coach Roger Machado conducted a tactical session, using the full length of the field, simulating game situations and making adjustments to the team.
Midfielder Bobadilla trained indoors at SuperCT this morning after coming down with acute gastroenterocolitis shortly after the match against Vasco da Gama last Saturday (18), in Rio de Janeiro, in the Brasileirão.
It is worth remembering that Tricolor entered this stage of the Copa do Brasil alongside the other 19 clubs from Brazil’s Série A. Juventude, meanwhile, joined the tournament in the second round and got past Guaporé, from Rondônia, as well as Tuna Luso and Águia de Marabá, both from Pará, to reach this stage.
