Corinthians women focus on defence ahead of Ferroviária | OneFootball

On the morning of this Wednesday, Corinthians continued its preparations for the upcoming fixtures of the season. At the training center, the women’s team held another training session focused on the match against Ferroviária, scheduled for July 17 in the Campeonato Paulista.

The schedule began in the gym, where the players carried out physical activities. Then, the squad went out onto the pitch for a warm-up, accompanied by the fitness coaching staff. In the technical portion, Emily Lima focused the session on adjustments to the defensive system and also conducted specific set-piece training.

The coaching staff, however, still does not have the full group available. Goalkeeper Lelê is still recovering from tendinopathy in the back of her right thigh. Although she has already begun treatment with the medical department, the keeper remains out of activities with the rest of the squad.

Another player who remains unavailable is center-back Agustina Barroso. The Argentine defender is still being treated for a recurring muscle strain associated with scar tissue in the soleus muscle of her left calf, an issue identified early in the season, and she is still not fit to return to collective training.

With preparations entering the final stretch, the Brabas are focusing their attention on the return of official competitions. The first challenge will be against Ferroviária on July 17 at 7 p.m. at Parque São Jorge, in a match valid for the fourth round of the Campeonato Paulista.

A few days later, Corinthians and Ferroviária will face each other again, this time in the round of 16 of the Women’s Copa do Brasil. After a change made by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), the knockout match was rescheduled for July 20, a Monday, at 8 p.m. at Fonte Luminosa, in Araraquara.
