Free week

Coach Fabio Matias led a tactical training session focused on offensive build-up, taking advantage of the free week after an intense run of games. For the match that closes out the first phase, the coach will have the entire squad available.

Full-back Caio Roque highlighted the importance of this training period. “We are coming off a heavy sequence of games, so it’s important to have a period like this for training, a free week to work, even for coach Fabio (Matias) to instill the playing style he wants and for us to be well-prepared against Mirassol to play a great game.”

Portuguesa depends only on itself to finish the first phase among the top four in the overall standings and head into the knockout stage with an advantage.
