During the training session, the most celebrated player was striker Obina, who turns 26 today. Fans who had access to the training session sang "Happy Birthday," and the player reciprocated by signing autographs and posing for photos. Marcelinho Paraíba, who is returning to the team, is hoping to make Obina's birthday even more special.

"I respected the coach's decision to leave me on the bench, and now I'm returning with the same mindset I've always had: helping my teammates and the team achieve victories. Who knows, maybe I'll give Obina a pass to score a goal in honor of his birthday," said the number 11.

Willians was also honored yesterday for his birthday. The midfielder turned 23 and confessed it was the best birthday of his life.
