São Paulo trained on Friday morning (22), continuing preparations for the game against Atlético Mineiro, this Sunday (24), at 8:30 PM (Brasília time), at Morumbi, for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship.

Coach Hernán Crespo and his staff led technical drills and then focused on tactical work, starting with a positional activity followed by an 11 vs 11 scrimmage.

At the end of this confrontation stage, where Crespo began to define the Tricolor's lineup, the Argentinian coach also conducted a set-piece rehearsal.

The big news, at least among those listed, should be thepresence of defender Rafael Tolói, registered in the BID after the club expedited the process to have him available against the team from Minas at Morumbi. He might start on the bench. Meanwhile, right-back Maílton, who has already participated in activities at the training center, has not yet appeared in the CBF's Informative Bulletin, at least until the publication of this article.

The injured players did not have updates on their physical conditions from the club today. On Thursday (21), defender Arboleda (injury to the rectus femoris muscle of the left thigh) and left-back Wendell (injury to the posterior region of the left thigh) went to the field and ran under the supervision of the physiotherapy team.

The same happened with forward Calleri, who worked in the morning. The Argentinian continues his recovery schedule after surgery to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament of the left knee.

Now, São Paulo will conduct one more training session before the match, the last one, on Saturday morning (23), at the Barra Funda training center.
