Brazil’s Under-20 National Team wrapped up preparation this Sunday (27) for its first commitment in Spain. On the eve of the clash with Denmark, the team coached by Paulo Victor held a session focused on reviewing the concepts worked on throughout the week and making final adjustments for the match.

Training began with myofascial release and mobility work, before a warm-up with exercises on pressing after losing possession. The session maintained intensity as one of the hallmarks of the preparation, in an activity designed to repeat efforts and demand concentration from the players.

Next, the coaching staff worked on attacking set-piece situations, with attention to positioning on corners and wide free kicks, as well as offensive heading drills. The objective was to reinforce behaviors and movements that may appear during the match.

The tactical portion was dedicated to reviewing the game plan and the behaviors considered essential by the coaching staff. Among them were the team’s coordinated movement, pressing after losing the ball, and regaining possession.

The session ended with a 6-v-6 exercise in build-up situations against pressure. The drill required the players to look for the free man, use third-man movement, and make defensive adjustments, in addition to stepping up the press and shifting laterally.

With preparation complete, Brazil now turns its attention to Denmark. The match will take place this Monday (28), at 6 p.m. local time (1 p.m. Brasília time), at Pinatar Arena, in San Pedro del Pinatar. The clash opens the team’s run of three friendlies in Spain, with the United States and Mexico still to come.
