Corinthians welcome midfielder back as they prepare for São Paulo decider | OneFootball

Corinthians resumed training on Tuesday morning as they prepare for the Brasileirão Feminino second leg against São Paulo, with midfielder Ana Vitória back in transition work. According to Meu Timao, she has started sessions with the fitness staff after a spell out.

The 26-year-old has been sidelined since the end of August with abdominal muscle pain. She has missed the last six matches and remains a doubt for the Majestoso.

Centre-back Erika, who has been managing discomfort in her left knee, took part in warm-up work. The 38-year-old is also a doubt for the final match.

Players who logged more than 45 minutes in the first leg completed indoor recovery at the training centre. The remaining group did strength work in the gym, then a small-sided session focused on transitions.

Corinthians have three more days at the CT before facing their rivals, and defender Thaís Regina returns after suspension for her semi-final red card against Bahia.

As Brabas must win by at least one goal to force penalties after a 2-1 defeat at Neo Química Arena. Their best winning run of the season ended in that result. The return leg is on Saturday at 16:30 at Morumbis.
