The Grêmio squad returned to training at CT Luiz Carvalho this Monday after their 3-2 away victory over Internacional in the Campeonato Brasileiro. Now, the team led by Mano Menezes shifts its focus to the clash with Botafogo this Wednesday.

How the training went

The first activity of the day was focused on the players’ physical recovery, with exercises in the gym and pool. Afterwards, the players who spent more than 60 minutes on the field in the derby did regenerative work.

The rest of the group went to the pitch, where they took part in physical and technical activities. In the first drill, the players practiced passing and ball control. Right after, they were divided into four teams to work on ball possession under pressure in a reduced space.

Finally, coach Mano Menezes split the players into two teams of nine and organized a match between the squads, covering two-thirds of the field.

With the victory over Internacional, Grêmio reached 28 points in the Campeonato Brasileiro and moved up to 12th place. The team from Rio Grande do Sul managed to distance itself from the relegation zone and is now nine points away from the G6.
