São Paulo step up preparations for clash with Internacional | OneFootball

São Paulo continued its training period during the FIFA international break this Thursday. It was the second session for the Tricolor squad, which returned to work last Wednesday.

Tricolor has been training with an eye on its upcoming match against Internacional, valid for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship. The game is scheduled for next Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Beira-Rio.

How was the training session?

São Paulo’s day began with activation work in the gym. After the warm-up, Roger Machado held one-on-one drills and started a tactical training session.

Finally, the coaching staff oversaw a small-sided game, simulating attack-versus-defense situations.

Bobadilla and Gonzalo Tapia were not present at the session. Both players are away on international duty with their respective national teams.

The Tricolor squad returns to training on Friday morning, again at SuperCT, to continue preparations during the FIFA international break.

São Paulo’s form

After starting the Brazilian Championship with five wins and one draw, São Paulo has been inconsistent at the beginning of Roger Machado’s tenure. Tricolor has not won in its last two matches (against Atlético-MG and Palmeiras).
