After the painful comeback loss to Grêmio, São Paulo’s squad returned to training on Sunday morning (9) at the Barra Funda Training Center, beginning preparations for the first leg against Bolívar in the Copa Sudamericana round of 16. The match is scheduled for next Tuesday (11) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the high altitude of La Paz.

After the match in Porto Alegre (RS), the players were split into two groups:

Starters: They carried out recovery and regenerative activities in the indoor facilities of the training center.
