Dorival Júnior leads first session on return to São Paulo | OneFootball

Dorival Júnior led his first training session on Monday afternoon (18) since returning to São Paulo.

The session wrapped up the team’s preparation for the match against Millonarios (COL) in the fifth round of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana Group C, which will mark the beginning of the coach’s third spell at MorumBIS.

After giving his introductory press conference in the SuperCT press room, Dorival gathered the squad in the auditorium for an initial talk.

He then oversaw tactical work: an 11-v-11 practice match, a positional exercise without opposition, and set-piece drills. There was also a small-sided game for part of the squad.

The group was boosted by the return of Alan Franco and Luciano. The center back is available again after suffering a minor strain in his right adductor, while the number 10 returns after recovering from swelling in the back of his right thigh.

Top of Group C with eight points, Tricolor hosts the Colombian side at 9:30 p.m. this Tuesday (19) at MorumBIS.
