Andreas steps up, back in training with the ball as Palmeiras return | OneFootball

The Palmeiras squad returned to the Football Academy after their 1-0 victory last Saturday against Mirassol in the Paulista Championship. The big news was the presence of midfielder Andreas Pereira, who has recovered from a trauma to his left shoulder suffered in the match against Santos.

The Training

The 11 starters from the last match did recovery work inside the club facilities. The rest of the squad carried out activities focused on play creation and movement. Afterwards, the players participated in a technical five-a-side drill in reduced dimensions.

Absent in the last game, midfielder Andreas Pereira took to the field and trained with the ball for the first time since his shoulder injury, which occurred against Santos last Wednesday. On that occasion, the number 8 left the game still in the first half due to pain.

Felipe Anderson, Figueiredo, and Lucas Evangelista did not take part in the activity and continue their physical transition process.

Schedule

On Monday, Verdão will hold their last training session before traveling to Novo Horizonte, where they will face Novorizontino on Tuesday at the Jorge Ismael de Biasi Stadium, at 8 p.m. (Brasília time). Palmeiras leads the Paulista Championship with a 100% record: three wins in three games.
