Tricolor begin preparations for Cruzeiro clash in BH | OneFootball

After training this Sunday morning (4) at SuperCT, São Paulo continued preparing for the match against Cruzeiro, scheduled for Thursday (8), at 8:30 p.m., at Mineirão, for the 29th round.

The morning session split the players into two groups: the starters from last Friday’s (2) derby against Santos, at MorumBIS, did recovery work indoors, while the rest trained on the pitch with Dorival Júnior and his assistants.

The field session, which included some young players from Cotia, began with mobility and possession drills. Then, two teams were formed for a small-sided game.

There was also additional technical work on crossing and finishing, with attacking movements.

Forward Luciano, who felt pain during the San-São, underwent imaging tests that diagnosed a right adductor injury. Like the number 10, left-back Iago also suffered a right adductor injury in the derby. Both have already started treatment at REFFIS Plus.

Midfielder Danielzinho, who sprained his left ankle during the match against Santos, was diagnosed with a syndesmosis injury. The midfielder began recovery work with the physiotherapists.

In addition, goalkeeper Rafael, who experienced a lower back problem during the warm-up and ended up being replaced by Coronel, also underwent treatment this morning at SuperCT.

On Monday (5), Tricolor will resume preparations for the clash against Cruzeiro in Minas Gerais.
