Thursday started off busy at the George Helal Training Center. In a training session that focused on positioning and compactness, Muricy Ramalho demanded a lot from his players in a "two-on-one" activity. With great dedication, the players met the goals set for both periods and left the coach satisfied.

Divided into three groups (defense, midfield, and attack), the players couldn't leave their own sector and had to work in a limited area. Quick thinking, compactness, short-range solutions, and speed were required. Alan Patrick and Mancuello demonstrated rapport with Marcelo Cirino and Guerrero, and opportunities arose, including goals. The reserve team also produced and demanded a lot from the starters.

In this type of training, the defense gains an additional member: in this case, Cesar Martins formed the defensive trio with Wallace and Juan. The midfield plays on both flanks, which increases the speed and intensity of the activity, also demanding the athletes physically. Two objectives (technical and physical) achieved in a single activity.

Mengão continues preparing to face Bangu, Sunday, 16 pm, in the last round of the Taça Guanabara.
