São Paulo played a scrimmage against the under-20 squad this Saturday at the Barra Funda training center, continuing their preparation for their next match in the Brazilian Championship against Grêmio, which will take place on Thursday, away from home.

Coach Hernán Crespo led a scrimmage divided into three periods, with the participation of some junior team players, taking the opportunity to observe the talents from São Paulo’s youth academy.

The professional team faced the under-20s, and there was a third team made up of athletes from both the main squad and the juniors, who also took part in the match.

Lucas Moura, recovered from an arthroscopy on his right knee, participated normally in the scrimmage, indicating that he could be São Paulo’s big novelty for the match against Grêmio next Thursday at 7 p.m. (Brasília time) in Porto Alegre.

The tricolor squad was given a day off by coach Hernán Crespo this Sunday and will return on Monday at the Barra Funda training center to begin the final stretch of preparation for the resumption of the calendar after the break for the FIFA date.
