Tricolor begins preparations for Boca Juniors clash | OneFootball

São Paulo began preparations on Sunday morning (06) for the clash against Boca Juniors, which will take place next Tuesday (08), at 9:30 p.m., at La Bombonera stadium in Buenos Aires, in the first leg of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana quarterfinals.

After the 2-0 win over Atlético Mineiro on Saturday night (05) at MorumBIS, in the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship, the squad returned to training this morning at SuperCT, already focused on the Argentine side.

The players who featured for most of the match against Atlético Mineiro went through a recovery session indoors, with bike exercises and upper- and lower-body strength work, as well as hydrotherapy and cryotherapy.

The remaining players started the day in the gym with a fitness session and then went out onto the pitch with coach Dorival Júnior and his staff for drills on possession, reaction after losing the ball, quick circulation and pressing, as well as an 11-vs-11 small-sided game. These activities also included youth academy players.

Forward Victor Sá has recovered from a traumatic sprain to his right ankle and trained normally with the squad this morning. He had been undergoing a physical conditioning program and taking part in some of the group activities.

Forward Lucca, meanwhile, completed his first full session with his teammates without restrictions. Recovered from a fractured jaw, he remains in the physical transition process.

Tricolor will train again on Monday morning (07) and travel to Buenos Aires in the afternoon on a charter flight operated by Sideral.
