With Lucas on the pitch, São Paulo train with Bahia in mind | OneFootball

São Paulo’s squad trained on Thursday morning (30) at SuperCT, focusing on the match against Bahia in the 14th round of the Brazilian Championship, which will be played on Sunday (03) at Cícero de Souza Marques, in Bragança Paulista, starting at 4 p.m.

The players who arrived from Bogotá on Wednesday morning (29), hours after the goalless draw with Millonarios (COL) in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana, reported back this morning and joined the group that had been rested from the trip.

The players who logged the most minutes in the match played in Colombia did recovery activities indoors and a run on the field. The others completed a warm-up under the guidance of the fitness staff, positional tactical work with build-up play and finishing drills, and an 11-on-11 game in a reduced space.

Attacking midfielder Lucas, recovered from fractures to two ribs suffered on March 18, trained the entire time alongside his teammates without restrictions. On Wednesday (29), he had already taken part in all activities with the players who remained in the state capital.

Defensive midfielder Pablo Maia was also on the field. He underwent surgery on April 10 to repair fractures to his nose and face and is currently in the physical conditioning process.

Meanwhile, center back Rafael Toloi, who left the match against Mirassol with pain in his left calf, remained under treatment at REFFIS Plus.

With 23 points and sitting fourth in the Brasileirão, São Paulo will train again on Friday morning (01), once more at SuperCT.
