The team also devoted part of the training session to set-piece plays, one of the activities carried out in preparation for the clash.

After training, forward Vic Albuquerque spoke about expectations for the match and stressed the importance of securing a positive result in front of the Corinthians fans.

“Well, São Paulo are a team we know very well. We’ve studied their game a lot, so it will be a match of many strategies. It’s a home game, so we need to win to go into the second match with a different kind of strategy. And with our fans here as well, we’re happy. We’ll have a 12th player, supporting us and cheering us on,” said the No. 17.

Corinthians will have one absence for the first match of the final. Coach Emily Lima will be without center-back Thais Regina, who is suspended after receiving a red card in the team’s last match against Bahia.

The match between Corinthians and São Paulo will be broadcast on Globo, SporTV and TV Brasil, as well as on the digital platforms UOL and GE TV. The second leg of the final will be played later, on a date and at a venue to be set by the competition organizers.
