São Paulo boost: Enzo Díaz trains fully, Ryan Francisco with ball | OneFootball

After defeating Chapecoense 2-0 on Thursday night (12th) at Canindé and taking the isolated lead in the Brazilian Championship with 13 points earned in five rounds, São Paulo returned to the Barra Funda training center on the morning of Friday (13th) and began preparations to face Bragantino at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) on Sunday (15th), away from home.

The players who logged the most minutes in the game followed a recovery schedule with indoor activities. The others went to the field for different drills led by Roger Machado and his assistants.

After a warm-up guided by the physical trainers, there was a technical fundamentals exercise focusing on passing. Next, they worked on ball possession in a small space, emphasizing decision-making under pressure.

Finally, Roger directed a sectorial reduced-space drill, where players occupied specific spaces according to their positions. This allowed for the simulation of different game situations, both offensive and defensive.

Left-back Enzo Díaz, who did not participate in the match against Chapecoense due to tendinopathy in his left adductor, joined the entire training session alongside his teammates.

Meanwhile, forward Ryan Francisco, who is transitioning with physical preparation after surgery on his left knee, participated in ball possession and technical fundamentals exercises and then complemented with running stimuli.

Forward Paulinho, recovering from a ligament injury in his left knee, also went to the field, performing linear running.
