Tricolor back in São Paulo, train for O’Higgins clash | OneFootball

São Paulo’s squad arrived in the city of São Paulo in the early hours of Sunday (12) after returning from Salvador, and trained in the morning with a focus on the match against O’Higgins (CHI), in the second round of Group C of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana. The match will be played at MorumBIS starting at 7 p.m. on Tuesday (14).

The players who logged the most minutes in the defeat to Vitória in the Brazilian Championship carried out recovery activities indoors and a run on the pitch. For the others, head coach Roger Machado led a small-sided field session focused on offensive transitions and attack-versus-defense situations.

Forward Calleri, who followed concussion protocol after the collision he suffered in the match against Cruzeiro last Saturday (04/04), took part in the entire session.

Center back Sabino (strain on his right calf) and defensive midfielder Bobadilla (three stitches in his right foot) also went onto the pitch and did individualized exercises. Forward Luciano (strain on his right calf), meanwhile, trained in the gym and also underwent treatment at REFFIS Plus.

The clash against the Chilean side is for the top spot in the group, as both São Paulo and O’Higgins (CHI) won in the first round. Tricolor beat Boston River (URU) 1-0 in Montevideo, while the Chileans defeated Millonarios (COL) 2-0 at home.
