Dorival Júnior leads first session on return to São Paulo | OneFootball

Dorival Júnior led his first training session back at São Paulo on Monday afternoon (18).

The session wrapped up the team’s preparations for the match against Millonarios (COL) in the fifth round of Group C of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana, which will mark the start of the coach’s third spell at MorumBIS.

After giving his introductory press conference in the SuperCT press room, Dorival gathered the squad in the auditorium for an initial talk.

He then oversaw tactical work: an 11-v-11 practice match, a positional drill without opponents, and set-piece repetitions. There was also a small-sided game for part of the squad.

The group welcomed back Alan Franco and Luciano. The defender is available again after suffering a minor strain in his right adductor, while the No. 10 returns after recovering from swelling in the back of his right thigh.

Top of Group C with eight points, Tricolor will host the Colombian side from 9:30 p.m. this Tuesday (19) at MorumBIS.
