São Paulo wrap up week’s work before two more training games on Saturday | OneFootball

São Paulo’s squad trained this Friday (10) at CT da Barra Funda and continued making adjustments during this midseason break for the World Cup.

The Tricolor players began the day with a warm-up led by the fitness staff, who oversaw motor control and possession drills.

Next, with the aim of activating the structures worked on during the week, Dorival Júnior’s coaching staff organized a contest between three teams: while two faced off on a reduced-size pitch, the third worked on build-up play with long balls, crosses, and finishing.

The players also did additional technical work focused on specific fundamentals by position, as well as free kicks and penalties.

With that, the team wrapped up the week of training, since this Saturday (11), at CT da Barra Funda, São Paulo will play two training matches: the first, at 10 a.m. (Brasília time), will be against Primavera. Then, at 2 p.m., São Paulo will hold a session with Santo André.

Dorival Júnior’s coaching staff will put together one team to face Primavera and another to take on Santo André. This way, each player will be able to play longer compared to the previous training matches, when São Paulo used one lineup in the first half and another in the second.

So far, the Tricolor have played two training matches in this midseason period, with two draws: 2-2 against Juventus and 0-0 against Bragantino. Then, on the 17th (Friday), the club’s plan is to play two more preparatory matches before the Brasileirão resumes, when they face Athletico-PR on the 22nd.
