São Paulo regroup after derby defeat, shift focus to Juventude | OneFootball

São Paulo reconvened this Friday at the Barra Funda training center after the defeat in the classic against Corinthians, 3-1, at Neo Química Arena, during the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship.

The athletes who played most of the time in Itaquera stayed inside the training center, participating in regenerative work at the gym.

Gonzalo Tapia, Damian Bobadilla, and Nahuel Ferraresi, who defended their respective national teams during the FIFA date and played in the second half against Corinthians, also did not go to the field, as they had to deal with the fatigue of long trips.

The Training

The other players initially went to the field for a warm-up, a period of training that included the presence of Marcos Antônio and Dinenno. Later, the duo worked separately under the care of the physical preparation team.

The rest of the squad participated in ball possession exercises and matches between two teams on a reduced field. There were also one-on-one duels.

São Paulo will conclude its preparation this Saturday to face Juventude on Sunday at 4 p.m. (Brasília time) at Vila Belmiro. Coach Hernán Crespo will have only one training session with all healthy players at his disposal before traveling to Santos.
