On the pitch, after the warm-up, the coaching staff applied a possession drill that also involved crosses and finishing. Next, head coach Fernando Diniz led a ten-versus-ten tactical exercise focused on the match against Rosario Central (ARG). The coach took the opportunity to test different options in the team.

After the tactical work, the players who played more than 45 minutes against Red Bull Bragantino returned indoors at the training center for a recovery session. The other players remained on the field for a small-sided practice match.
