Because of this, Mauricio did not train this Tuesday (10th) at Allianz Parque, is out of the game against Vasco next Thursday (12th), and is doubtful for Palmeiras' upcoming matches.

Palmeiras' Training

After winning the Paulista Championship title last Sunday (8th), Palmeiras returned to training on the morning of this Tuesday (10th) at Allianz Parque.

With a new pitch, the stadium will host Verdão's matches again next Sunday (15th), when the team faces Mirassol in the Brazilian Championship. Before that, the team takes on Vasco da Gama on Thursday (12th) in Rio de Janeiro, also for the national competition.

After the state championship victory, the more worn-out starters stayed at Palmeiras' Football Academy for regenerative work. Meanwhile, the players who showed better recovery rates participated in light activities on the field, with runs, ball touches, movements, and finishes. Upon returning to the training center, they also followed a physical recovery schedule. The rest of the squad underwent technical training under the guidance of the coaching staff led by Abel Ferreira.
