Squad starts preparations to face Atlético-MG | OneFootball

Under the rain that fell in the city of São Paulo this Tuesday (09/01), the squad returned to SuperCT after the 2-1 win over Red Bull Bragantino last weekend and began preparations for their next Brazilian Championship clash: against Atlético-MG on Saturday (5), at 6:30 p.m., at MorumBIS, in the 26th round.

The players started the day with lower-body strength exercises indoors. Then, out on the pitch, they worked on ball possession.

The coaching staff then split the group into three teams: while two faced off, the third carried out a technical fundamentals drill focused on crosses and finishing.

Finally, a small-sided game wrapped up Tricolor’s morning training session, with three more days of adjustments still ahead before the match against the team from Minas Gerais.

Bobadilla, Newton, Lucca, and Lucas continued with individualized work on the pitch alongside the physiotherapy staff, while Victor Sá trained with the fitness coaches.

PROPHET AT SUPERCT

Club icon Hernanes was at SuperCT this Tuesday to follow the training sessions led by Dorival Júnior’s coaching staff during the week. The former player recently completed UEFA’s A License.
